Good summary: http://ec.europa.eu/research/horizon2020/pdf/press/fact_sheet_on_rules_under_horizon_2020.pdf

2 Partnership Notes

  • Applications need to be handed it by at least 3 independent partner organizations, all located in different EU member states
  • If any participating members involvement exceeds 325,000 Euros there will be a mandatory financial audit by an external auditor (KPMG, Deloitte, Ernst & Young, PwC) up to two years after the projects completion. If the funds are lower than 325,000 Euros organizations to be audited are selected at random.

2.1 Grant Agreement

Any participating member is required to sign a grant agreement that outlines the rules under which the application and potential future collaboration will be conducted:

  • Any work covered by grant money needs to be released under and open/free license


3 Financial Rules

How the Grant is calculated:

Innovation Action Direct Costs Indirect Costs Total Costs % EU Contribution EU Contribution
Non-Profit 100 25 125 100 125 Euro
For-Profit 100 25 125 70 87.5 Euro

This example is based on the fictional amount of 100 Euro.

Note that the same funding rate applies to all partners in a grant. So if a non profit leads the grant application all for-profit partners will get a 100% funding rate as well.
