Description

1) Objective

Principal Investigators must demonstrate the ground-breaking nature, ambition and feasibility of their research proposal.

2) Eligibility

The ERC actions are open to researchers of any nationality who intend to conduct their research activity in any EU Member State or Horizon Associated Country. Principal Investigators may be of any age and nationality and may reside in any country in the world at the time of the application. The host institution must engage and host the Principal Investigator for at least the
duration of the project, as defined in the grant agreement.

3) Location

Actions must take place in EU member states or Associated Country.

4) Budget

Starting Grants may be awarded up to a maximum of €1,500,000 for a period of 5 years. The maximum size of the grants is reduced pro rata temporis for projects of a shorter duration.

Additional funding up to €1,000,000 can be requested in the proposal to cover the following eligible costs when these are necessary to carry out the proposed work: (a) “start-up” costs for Principal Investigators moving to the EU or an Associated Country from elsewhere as a consequence of receiving the ERC grant, and/or (b) the purchase of major equipment, and/or (c) access to large facilities, and/or (d) other major experimental and field work costs, excluding personnel costs.
