Why attend

Most Hop-on applications fail before writing starts.

Applicants target the wrong projects, present themselves as generic partners, or contact coordinators without a clear value proposition.

This highly practical bootcamp works directly on your case.

You will build your partner profile, identify the projects where you genuinely fit, draft coordinator outreach messages, and begin writing your own 8-page Part B application during the session.

By the end of the bootcamp, you leave with concrete outputs you can immediately use.

A good fit if you are:

• A university, research institute, SME, NGO or public organisation from a Widening country.
• Looking to join an existing Horizon Europe consortium through the Hop-on Facility.
• Ready to bring a short description of your expertise, facilities and services.
• Interested in identifying suitable projects among the 86 currently eligible opportunities.

What you need to bring

• A short description of your expertise and facilities.

Recording included

The full bootcamp is recorded and shared with all participants.

You can revisit every exercise, rebuild each step at your own pace, and continue developing your application after the session.

What makes this different?

This is not a webinar.

Most of the session is spent working directly on your own profile, project selection and application.

By the end of the bootcamp, you will have started a real Hop-on application rather than simply learning about the programme.

Included in your registration

• Live 150-minute bootcamp.
• Tracker of the 86 eligible projects.
• Partner-profile template.
• Coordinator outreach templates.
• Part B drafting framework.
• Budget calculation guidance.
• Recording of the full session.
