The Commission and the Arab Republic of Egypt have successfully concluded negotiations on Egypt's association to Horizon Europe, allowing Egyptian researchers to access the EU's flagship research and innovation funding programme. The Agreement is expected to be signed by November 2025, with its entry into force subject to final validations by both parties.  

Startups, Research and Innovation Commissioner Ekaterina Zaharieva (pictured) said: "Egypt's association to Horizon Europe will drive progress in key sectors like energy, food security, and digital transition, creating new opportunities for innovation."  

Association to Horizon Europe is the deepest form of collaboration offered by the EU in research and innovation. Once signed, the agreement will enable Egyptian researchers and organizations to participate on equivalent terms as entities established in EU member states.  

Egypt will be the second North African country fully associated to Horizon Europe after Tunisia.
