New ERC funding scheme: The ERC Plus Grants
Even larger than an ERC Advanced Grant, the new ERC Plus Grants is a new funding scheme to support outstanding principal investigators with bold ideas and a vision for transformative research that goes beyond the scope of existing ERC programmes.
The ERC organises a webinar to present and discuss this new ERC grant, on November 28, 2025, from 3 to 4:30 PM: https://erc.europa.eu/news-events/events/webinar-new-erc-plus-grants
During this seminar, they will explain how ERC Plus Grants sit within the wider ERC funding landscape and what applicants should bear in mind when preparing a proposal. Participants will be able to ask questions and engage directly with the speakers.
