🇪🇺🇯🇵 Japan has officially become an associated country to #HorizonEurope, bringing one of the world's most advanced research and innovation ecosystems even closer to Europe.
For European SMEs, this is another strong signal that EU-Japan collaboration is entering a new phase. Alongside expanded opportunities for joint research and innovation projects, the association is expected to strengthen partnerships in areas such as 💻 digital technologies, 🧬 healthcare, 🦾 advanced manufacturing, 🍀 clean energy and climate-neutral solutions.
Turning research collaboration into commercial success, however, requires trusted local partnerships and a solid understanding of the Japanese market.
This is where the EU Business Hub – Japan and the Republic of Korea programme helps bridge the gap. Through sector-focused business missions, tailored B2B matchmaking, market intelligence and business coaching, the programme supports innovative European SMEs in connecting with Japanese partners and exploring long-term business opportunities.
As research and business cooperation between the EU and Japan continue to deepen, there has never been a better time for European innovators to explore one of the world's most dynamic technology markets.
