IHI Call 13 – Innovative Health Initiative (two-stage)

Horizon Europe · EU · Deadline Oct 8, 2026

Summary

The Innovative Health Initiative is the public-private partnership between the EU and COCIR, EFPIA, EuropaBio and MedTech Europe. Call 13 launched on 2 July 2026 and runs in two stages: short proposals by 8 October 2026 at 17:00 Brussels time, full proposals by 21 April 2027. There are three topics, each funding a single project: a European HealthCare Incubator Network that de-risks start-ups through cascade funding and an industry quality seal (up to EUR 35 million), an AI foundation toxicology model allowing a second species to be waived in chronic drug safety studies (EUR 9 million), and decoding the immuno-science of age-related immune-mediated diseases (EUR 9.2 million). Your consortium needs at least one independent legal entity established in an EU Member State plus at least two others in different Member States or associated countries. Part of the costs must be contributed by private IHI members and contributing partners, in kind or financially.
