For the period 2021-2027, Armenia has been granted association status to Horizon Europe, Europe’s €95.5 billion research and innovation programme.

Researchers, innovators and research entities established in the country can now participate, under the same conditions as entities from the EU Member States.

Armenia was since 2016 fully associated to Horizon 2020, the previous EU research and innovation programme (2014-2020), and multiple success stories resulted from this cooperation in areas like health, skills and innovation capacity for SMEs, and more.
