Joint Statement on the Model Grant Agreement’s Intellectual Property Provisions of the European Innovation Council under Horizon Europe

Statement | 5 December 2022

Ahead of the European Innovation Council (EIC) Summit, research and innovation organisations voice concerns regarding the Intellectual Property (IP) provisions for EIC-funded Transition and Pathfinder projects. As they currently stand, the provisions create serious obstacles to the knowledge valorisation services undertaken by research-performing organisations. This poses serious threats to the exploitation of research outcomes.
