India and EU Conclude Negotiations on Horizon Europe Research Association
India and the European Union have concluded negotiations for India's association with Horizon Europe, the EU's €93.5 billion flagship research and innovation programme. This agreement, expected to take effect in January 2027 after ratification, will allow Indian researchers and organisations to access funding directly and lead multinational projects addressing global challenges such as health, climate, and digital technologies. The move strengthens scientific cooperation and deepens the EU-India strategic partnership ahead of a planned free trade agreement.
