Navigating the Future: New EU 2026-2027 Calls for Photonics, Quantum, Imaging and Sensing

The European Commission has recently unveiled the Horizon Europe Work Programme 2026-2027, earmarking a significant portion of its €14 billion budget for the “Digital, Industry, and Space” cluster. For the photonics and quantum communities, these two years represent a critical window to transition from laboratory breakthroughs to industrial sovereignty.
🇪🇺 HORIZON EUROPE 🤝 TEMATYS
Tematys is actively involved in several Horizon Europe projects, providing a range of services including Dissemination, Communication, Exploitation, IP Management, and Technology Transfer activities. Our role typically includes understanding end-user needs, producing market requirements documents, specifying prototypes, and leading exploitation work packages apart from efficiently disseminating and communicating around the projects.
We look forward to contributing to groundbreaking research and delivering strategic insights that will shape the future of these dynamic fields.
