Horizon 2020 Inducement Prizes
Inducement Prize Contests are a new instrument introduced under Horizon 2020. They offer a reward for the completion of a set technological challenge that has not yet been achieved so far. The target is clearly defined and described in the Work Programme and further specified through award criteria, but without prescribing how it should be achieved. The person, team, organization or company that offers the best feasible solution is rewarded with a considerable financial prize.
The following contests for innovation prizes are announced:
