All proposals submitted to this Call must have a minimum co-funding rate of 25% for the whole project duration. Co-funding above this rate will be positively assessed during the portfolio selection. The minimum co-funding rate refers to the total project budget.

This Call is open to organisations from the Member States of the European Union, and Third countries associated with Horizon Europe. Both multi-participant proposals and mono-participant proposals are accepted (see Section 3.5 for specific requirements).

In the case of mono-participant proposals, it is considered that the pan-European dimension is achieved through the network and truly international experience required from all our Master School and Fellowship programmes with compulsory mobility requirements embedded in the curriculum.

In case of multi-participant proposals, as a minimum requirement proposals must be put forward by at least two independent legal entities established in two different EU Member States and/or Third countries associated with Horizon Europe.

Participating in one of EIT Urban Mobility projects means being part of the EIT Urban Mobility community. All entities of selected proposals are asked to be part of the community and to choose one of the following membership categories when initiating their projects:

• Gold members: they pay an annual fee of €30.000 and have full access to all benefit packages offered by EIT Urban Mobility.
• Silver members: they pay an annual fee of €10.000 and have limited access to all benefit packages offered by EIT Urban Mobility. In the case of Small Enterprises and NGOs, a reduced annual fee of €5.000 will be applied.
• Leading cities: with an annual fee of €10.000 they have full access to the gold membership package and the additional city-pecific services. In the case of cities with a population of below 300,000 inhabitants, a reduced annual fee of €5.000 will be applied.

  Detailed description of all packages and related benefits, as well as the registration and conditions for membership is outlined on the EIT Urban Mobility website.
