The new EU Funding & Tenders Portal: A Gateway to Simplified Access and Opportunities

The EU Funding & Tenders Portal has undergone a significant transformation, aimed at making your search for funding and tender opportunities not just easier but more intuitive and efficient. The portal, a cornerstone for accessing EU funding and tenders, now boasts an array of improvements and features designed with you in mind. Here’s a glimpse into what the new and improved portal offers and how it can serve as your ultimate guide in navigating EU funding and tender opportunities.

A Fresh and User-friendly Interface

Upon visiting the portal, you'll be greeted with a fresh look and feel on the updated landing pages. These changes are not merely cosmetic; they're structured to enhance your user experience, making information and services more accessible than ever before. The separation of funding and procurement sections ensures that you find what you're looking for quickly and without detour.

Advanced Search Capabilities and Tailored Recommendations

The portal introduces an advanced search tool that employs cutting-edge, state-of-the-art AI technology, including a new semantic search capability. This innovation allows for a more nuanced search experience, enabling you to find relevant calls for proposals and tenders beyond the exact terms you enter, based on semantics and affinity. This means less time searching and more time focusing on what matters most to your project or organization.

To make the portal even more personalized, once logged in, you’ll receive tailored recommendations for "calls for proposals," ensuring that you never miss out on funding opportunities aligned with your interests and field of work.

Enhanced Navigation and Content Engagement

With improved filtering options, navigating through calls for tenders is now more straightforward, helping you to efficiently pinpoint the opportunities that best match your needs. Additionally, the portal's content has been enriched, featuring a highlights section that provides insights into the latest developments, as well as updated news and events sections to keep you informed and inspired.

Streamlined Support and Future Enhancements

For those who are new to the portal or seeking further assistance, a streamlined FAQ database, along with support videos, is available to help you get started. And this is just the beginning. The portal team is committed to continuously enriching the user experience, with future updates set to include more personalized features such as bookmarks and saved searches, as well as enhanced helpdesk functionalities.


The portal is designed to serve a wide array of users, including researchers, applicants, beneficiaries, experts, investors, and contractors, embodying the EU's commitment to inclusivity and support across various domains. By integrating user feedback into ongoing and future enhancements, the portal ensures that it evolves in a way that genuinely reflects and meets the needs of its diverse user base.
