A well-planned clustering event can do more than showcase project results. It can spark collaboration, build new partnerships, and amplify impact across the EU research landscape. Yet, turning that potential into reality takes structure, foresight, and an understanding of what makes participants truly engage. After organising several clustering events across different industries – from sustainable...
Designing for innovation often begins before a product exists. That was the starting point for Future Needs in the TANGO project, a Horizon Europe initiative developing a data-sharing platform to connect industries through secure, transparent information flows. Before a single line of code was written, Future Needs worked on transforming the idea into something people...
At the end of October 2025, the Future Needs team took the stage at EUROCONTROL Headquarters in Brussels during the SESAR Joint Undertaking event “Supporting Drone Strategy 2.0” to present our work on U-space public benefits. Attracting over 250 participants, this two-day event marked the final dissemination of three SESAR Digital Sky Demonstrator projects: BURDI,...

Introduction 30% of Horizon Europe projects already include Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH) partners. That’s not a coincidence, it’s a signal. The European Commission wants research that is impactful, inclusive, and human-centred. Projects that overlook SSH risk losing evaluation points, missing impact, or appearing disconnected from societal needs. If your next proposal doesn’t have meaningful...
On October 3rd, 2025, Future Needs organised the final demo event of our EU-funded project, SmartVitiNet, supported by the ERDF I3 scheme, where we lead communication, dissemination and exploitation activities. Following successful showcases in France and Portugal, the Cyprus event welcomed viticulturists, researchers, and vineyard owners to beautiful Ktima Gerolemo in Omodos. Participants experienced live...
On September 29–30, 2025, Future Needs joined project partners in Athens for the two-day MULTIPULM Kick-off Meeting, hosted by Uni Systems. The sessions established a clear roadmap toward developing an integrated digital care ecosystem to support the management of chronic respiratory diseases and multimorbidity in Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs). Beyond leading Dissemination, Communication, and...
Definition Horizon Europe proposals are read and scored by independent experts against three criteria: Excellence, Impact, and Quality and efficiency of the Implementation. Each criterion gets a 0–5 score (in 0.5 steps). Standard thresholds: 3/5 per criterion and 10/15 overall. Innovation Actions apply Impact ×1.5 for ranking. In two-stage calls, stage-1 checks only Excellence and...
After supporting dozens of Horizon Europe and other EU-funded research projects, at Future Needs we’ve seen a common thread: incredible science struggling to make the impact it deserves. Why? Because brilliant research is failing to generate the recognition, funding, and career opportunities researchers deserve. Many researchers are told research visibility is “important.” But what does...
The Innovation-to-Impact Gap in Aviation In the high-stakes world of aviation, innovation is only as valuable as its ability to scale, serve, and solve. Yet for many EU-funded research projects, the journey from lab to runway often ends in stalled reports and unactivated insights. Bridging this gap is no small feat, and that’s precisely where...
