The Travel Awards programme provides UK businesses and innovation-focused organisations with financial support to attend key European events that help build international partnerships, develop collaborative projects and engage with major research and development programmes such as Horizon Europe and EUREKA.
Successful applicants can receive up to £750 to contribute towards eligible travel and accommodation costs, helping reduce the financial barrier to attending high-value networking, brokerage and consortium-building events across Europe. The awards are particularly aimed at R&D-active SMEs, but are open to a range of UK-based organisations involved in innovation.
Applicants must secure their own place at the chosen event, as the award supports travel rather than event registration, and funding is provided on a reimbursement basis in line with standard travel cost guidelines. In addition to financial support, recipients benefit from practical guidance on how to maximise the impact of attending European events, including advice on networking and collaboration opportunities.
This grant supports organisations looking to expand their international reach and strengthen their role in future collaborative R&D projects.
