What it funds
The directory records up to EUR 4m for this opportunity. Pathfinder supports early-stage collaborative research into breakthrough technologies, rather than general business running costs. Confirm the 2027 call's funding limits and eligible costs on the official programme page before preparing your budget.
Who can apply?
This listing records a consortium of at least three partners across three countries and UK eligibility. It is aimed at research-heavy teams exploring novel science with long-term commercial potential. This is an initial fit summary, not the full eligibility criteria: check the official call's organisation, country and consortium requirements for every partner.
- Any sector
- Industrial R&D
When does Pathfinder Open 2027 close?
This opportunity is recorded as expected to open, but no competition-specific 2027 deadline is stored in the directory. A recurring Pathfinder programme date is not confirmation of the Open call deadline. Check the official Pathfinder Open page for the published opening date, closing date and submission conditions.
Open or Challenges?
This page covers Pathfinder Open. Pathfinder Challenges are separate calls with their own topics and conditions; do not use a Challenge deadline or applicant rule for an Open application.
The funding and consortium details above come from this directory listing. General research-fit guidance comes from our Pathfinder programme overview. The official call conditions take precedence.
