Later in July, the European Commission confirmed the calls and other actions of the second year of the two-year work programmes setting out Horizon 2020 funding opportunities for 2017. The Work Programme for 2017 will have a stronger focus on Open Science, making open research data the default setting for H2020 projects; it will also focus on circular economy; personalised medicine; and on pan-European research infrastructures
The calls and other actions under the current work programme updates have a budget of €8.5 billion.
