The ERA SHUTTLE project consortium successfully launched its webinar series with a session focused on unlocking EU funding for research and innovation. This webinar served as a practical introduction to the complex world of EU funding programmes, offering guidance on how to approach proposal development, build strong consortia, and align ideas with the right calls.

What You’ll Learn
