The Cluster 6 National Contact Points network, CARE4BIO, is organizing an in-person networking event to be held in Warsaw (Poland) on May 27, 2025, focused on the 2025 calls of Horizon Europe’s Cluster 6: “Food, Bioeconomy, Natural Resources, Agriculture and Environment.” This event complements the European Commission’s Cluster 6 Info Days, which will be held online on May 20–21, 2025.

The networking event will focus on consortium building. Its goal is to bring together all interested stakeholders wishing to apply for funding under the 2025 Cluster 6 calls of Horizon Europe. The core of the event will be bilateral meetings between European and international participants interested in the same topics, with the aim of sharing new project ideas and finding collaboration partners. This will support the formation of strong consortia for the 2025 calls.
Participants will be able to schedule bilateral meetings in advance through the event platform, using an intuitive matchmaking tool based on participants’ profiles. In addition to peer-to-peer meetings, attendees will also have the chance to connect with representatives from other networks and organizations, such as the Enterprise Europe Network (EEN) and the CARE4BIO project NCPs, gaining access to personalized support and information. The event program will also include a platform for 5-minute flash presentations to pitch project ideas.
The networking event will cover the following Horizon Europe Cluster 6 – 2025 call areas:
Biodiversity and ecosystem services
Fair, healthy and environmentally-friendly food systems, from primary production to consumption
