Cluster 6 Food & Bioeconomy 2027: 26 Grants in Single-Stage Call 03

Live Webinar · 4 February 2027

Cluster 6 Food, Bioeconomy, Natural Resources, Agriculture and Environment remains one of Horizon Europe’s largest funding opportunities for agri-food innovation, bioeconomy transformation, sustainability, and environmental systems.

Yet many agri-food organisations still default to national or CAP funding — even when Cluster 6 offers significantly larger funding envelopes, stronger innovation pathways, and broader European deployment opportunities.

For 2027, Cluster 6 places strong emphasis on:

• Living Labs and Lighthouses

• Mission Soil integration

• Farm-to-Fork strategy alignment

• Bioeconomy scaling

• Multi-actor stakeholder engagement

This practical 90-minute webinar explains how the 2027 Cluster 6 calls are structured, how Call 03 differs from earlier calls, and when Horizon Europe is strategically stronger than CAP or national funding routes.

Whether you are preparing a proposal in sustainable agriculture, bioeconomy, environmental systems, food innovation, or rural transformation, this session will help you position your application more competitively for the 2027 deadlines.

Why Attend

Many agri-food and bioeconomy organisations:

• Apply only to national or CAP programmes

• Underestimate Horizon Europe eligibility

• Misunderstand Mission Soil integration

• Underbuild stakeholder engagement

• Miss replication and scalability expectations

Meanwhile, Cluster 6 increasingly rewards:

• Multi-actor collaboration

• Living Labs and demonstration environments

• Environmental-system integration

• Farm-to-Fork alignment

• Scalable sustainability pathways

This webinar explains:

• The seven topics in Call 03

• How Living Labs and Lighthouses fit into Mission Soil

• What Farm-to-Fork alignment actually means in evaluation

• When Cluster 6 is strategically better than CAP funding

You will leave with clearer positioning guidance for building stronger agri-food and bioeconomy proposals.
