The EC Horizon Results Platform:

• Is Free – you can promote the Key Exploitable Results* (KERs) of your projects
• Is Easy to use – hosted under the Funding & Tenders Portal where you manage everything else for your projects
• Is a Matchmaking tool. Use the wide range of flags and attention-grabbing features to attract your target audiences
• Is Managed by you – you can publish and update KERs whenever they are available and whenever your KERs evolve
• Reaches out to many audiences – policymakers, investors, researchers, scientists, scholars, entrepreneurs, financing experts, IP specialists, politicians and other stakeholders visit Horizon Results Platform regularly
• Triggers services and opportunities at no cost to you – the nature and needs you indicate on HRP for each of your results allows us to inform you about relevant upcoming calls for proposals, thematic pitching events with investors, possibilities for assistance with your exploitation plans, business development plans, innovation management, IP management, and many more.

Find out what users say about HRP in this video.

Our ultimate goal here, in the team behind the Platform, is to put you on front stage and make this platform a celebration of your achievements. We will do whatever is within our reach to help address your needs.

We look forward to welcoming you to this webinar!

*Key Exploitable result

According to the Horizon 2020 text, a result is defined as:

“Any tangible or intangible output of the action, such as data, knowledge and information whatever their form or nature, whether or not they can be protected, which are generated in the action as well as any attached rights, including intellectual property rights”.

A Key Exploitable Result (KER) is an identified main interesting result (as defined above) which has been selected and prioritised due to its high potential to be “exploited” – meaning to make use and derive benefits- downstream the value chain of a product, process or solution, or act as an important input to policy, further research or education.
