BOOST

Building Outstanding Opportunities for Science & Talent (BOOST)

Description

BOOST (Building Outstanding Opportunities for Science and Talent) is a Horizon Europe initiative designed to strengthen research and innovation careers in Widening countries by helping great research travel further, into products, services, and real societal value. At the heart of the project is the BOOST Learning Environment: an open-source, online one-stop shop where academic and non-academic organisations can connect, discover opportunities, and access a growing open-access database of tools, resources, and proven practices.

Objectives

BOOST ERA Talents Scheme: 60 researchers taking part in 12-month secondments and receiving training across five modules: circular business models, investors and venture capital, effective pitching and communication, access to finance and funding, and social innovation for ERA Talents.
Each participant is supported with a Personal Career Development Plan to make the experience concrete and transferable, and the programme is designed to strengthen brain circulation and reduce brain drain in Widening regions.
