Cancer Mission is a key initiative under the European Union’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme. Its main objective is to improve the lives of millions by advancing cancer prevention, diagnosis, treatment and quality of life for patients and their families. The calls are now open, and Spinverse health domain experts are ready to evaluate your eligibility for the programme.
The EU Innovation Fund offers EUR 2.9 billion in financial support to companies investing in innovative solutions to decarbonise EU’s energy and industry. The new call texts (IF25) were published on the 4th of December 2025 with topics for different CAPEX scales, clean-tech manufacturing and pilots. With a strong track record of successful projects with our customers, we are again looking forward to providing our expertise to the project development and proposal preparation process – whether a new project or a resubmission.
New technologies are transforming how we live, work and do business. Startups and small companies with big ideas especially in deep tech fields such as AI, advanced materials and clean energy are leading this transformation. However, turning breakthrough ideas into market-ready solutions is challenging and requires significant funding and support. That is where European Innovation Council Accelerator (EICA) comes in and Spinverse is happy to support if you decide to apply for funding through this instrument.
Securing an invitation to the Grant Agreement Preparation (GAP) phase for an EU-funded project is a significant achievement, reflecting a proposal’s excellence in a highly competitive field. Entering the GAP phase marks the beginning of a detailed and time-sensitive process that must be completed before project activities can truly start. Spinverse’s Innovation Project Services are designed to guide organisations through every step from GAP to project execution, ensuring a smooth journey and maximising the project’s impact.
The four-year SUSPENSE project, coordinated by CHIMAR HELLAS S.A. from Greece, has secured EUR 7.48 million from Circular Bio-based Europe (CBE). SUSPENSE aims to develop innovative, sustainable bio-based adhesives targeted at replacing conventional fossil-based adhesives used in wood-based panels and insulation materials. Spinverse supported the SUSPENSE consortium in their successful project proposal process and will continue to work with the consortium as it prepares to kick off the project in October 2025.
The UNCAN-CONNECT consortium, with expert grant support from Spinverse’s digital health team, has secured a funding of EUR 32 million from Horizon Europe to implement the EU Cancer Mission’s flagship UNCAN initiative. This federated, multimodal data environment will drive collaboration among leading European institutions, transforming cancer research. This platform will enable secure, cross-border access to clinical, imaging and genomic data accelerating better understanding of cancer, novel discoveries and advancing patient care across EU.
Financial reporting in EU-funded projects is a structured and regulated process designed to ensure transparency, accountability and proper use of EU funds. Partners in so-called Actual cost projects need to submit financial reports every 12 or 18 months throughout the project duration. It is essential to prepare for the financial reporting from the first day of the project, to ensure calculation of costs is done correctly and proper records of all costs incurred are kept. It may take quite a bit of administrative effort, but when done properly from the start, it should not present any insurmountable hurdles! This is our overview based on our experience and the latest EU guidance and templates.

Backed by the Digital Europe Programme, the Robocoast European Digital Innovation Hub (EDIH) helps manufacturing SMEs adopt AI, cybersecurity and other digital technologies and drive sustainable growth and global competitiveness in the EU. For the first Robocoast EDIH project in 2022, Spinverse supported the consortium in articulating their vision and map out the impact on European scale. Again in 2025, Spinverse supported Robocoast in designing a continuation project. In this project, the focus will be on unlocking AI technologies to manufacturing SMEs across a wide range of verticals in Finland and beyond.
