The European Funding team at Luxinnovation, your National Contact Point for the Horizon Europe programme, is pleased to invite you to the next edition of “Brunch with the Coordinators.” 

This in-person session will focus on the Lump Sum cost model in Horizon Europe. With the European Commission increasing the use of this model in its 2026–2027 Work Programmes and proposing its broader adoption as the standard in FP10, this session aims to raise awareness among Luxembourg stakeholders and highlight key implications for proposal preparation, project implementation, and grant management.

  • Gain practical knowledge on the Lump Sum model 
  • Understand its implications for project preparation and implementation 
  • Hear directly from experts and the European Commission 
  • Connect with peers and potential partners over brunch
