On 21 January 2027, the Green and Inclusive Future International Brokerage Event will take place in Istanbul. This international event is organised by the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Türkiye (TÜBİTAK), in collaboration with the Enterprise Europe Network, within the framework of the Technical Assistance for Türkiye in Horizon Europe project.
The event aims to connect organisations from Türkiye and other European countries interested in participating in the upcoming Horizon Europe 2027 calls for proposals, facilitating partner searches, the exchange of ideas and the creation of international consortia for the development of future research and innovation projects.
Among the four thematic areas of the event, the New European Bauhaus stands out, with a dedicated session to explore collaboration opportunities related to the green transition, inclusion and improving the quality of the built environment. The session will begin with a presentation of upcoming funding opportunities under the Horizon NEB 2027 programme, followed by a pitching session, during which participating organisations will be able to present their project ideas, capabilities and expertise, as well as identify the types of partners they need to complete their proposals.
In the afternoon, from 14:00 to 17:00, face-to-face bilateral meetings (matchmaking meetings) will take place. These meetings will have been scheduled in advance through the B2Match platform, based on participants’ profiles and interests. The platform will also remain open to facilitate online meetings until the end of 2027, allowing participants to maintain the contacts established during the event and make further progress in preparing their proposals.
