The European Innovation Council (EIC) Pathfinder Pilot has selected 35 projects set to develop cutting-edge technologies to receive a total of €114 million following the latest round of applications for funding. The funding comes from Horizon 2020, the EU’s research and innovation programme.

At the same time, Iordanis Arzimanoglou - expert in genetics and cancer research as well as biotechnology and AI-based medicine - has been appointed as the first EIC Programme Manager.

Mariya Gabriel, Commissioner for Innovation, Research, Culture, Education and Youth, said:

"With the EIC Pathfinder, we translate game-changing technology research projects into innovative businesses focused on sustainability, digitalisation and deep technology. Today, we see concretely how the EIC – by encouraging researchers from different disciplines to work together and helping commercialisation of research projects – provides strong support to innovation across Europe."
