Proof of Concept: Call results

The results of the first deadline for the Proof of Concept (PoC) Call 2024 have been published. Most PoC projects go to researchers with an institution in the United Kingdom (15 projects), followed by the Netherlands (14) and Italy (12). Ten projects each were awarded to researchers at institutions in Germany, France and Spain. The 2000th Proof of Concept Grant was also awarded with this application round. The next deadline for application submissions is 17 September 2024. For the first time in this call year, there are only two cut-off dates instead of three. This procedure will be continued for the PoC Call 2025 (cut-off dates: 13 March 2025 and 18 September 2025).
