THE UK Government has announced that it is making an additional £250m (US$345.5m) in funding available to support UK participation in Horizon Europe, the EU’s 2020–2027 research and innovation funding programme, with a budget of €95.5bn (US$113.81bn).
This follows uncertainty about how the nation would fund its association with the programme, with concerns for the scientific community being exacerbated by cuts to the Department of Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy’s budget for research and innovation, and climate efforts. It had been thought that the BEIS core budget was to fund Horizon participation. After the cuts were announced there was widespread outcry from the community to Government, and calls for action to ensure the UK’s ability to take part in Horizon.
