JRC Working Paper Series For a Fair, Innovative and Sustainable Economy, 4/2025
The 100 bn euro Horizon Europe program of the European Union (and its predecessor, Horizon 2020) have not succeeded in narrowing the competitiveness/productivity gap between the US and the EU. For the collaborative projects that receive the largest part of Horizon funding one finds only a temporary impact on the beneficiary enterprises. This is likely due to the excessive size of the consortia (often more than 20). Only the relatively small part of funding going to single beneficiaries, like the SME program of Horizon 2020 and the European Innovation Council show some positive long-term impact on beneficiary enterprises.
