Programmes ERC ERCOver the course of the Horizon 2020 Framework Programme (2014-2020), the ERC provided funding for over 6,700 research projects, amounting to a total value of €13.3 billion. These projects encompassed a wide range of scientific disciplines, creating a significant and diverse portfolio.
Recognising the importance of obtaining a comprehensive understanding of the breadth and diversity of the research it supports, the ERC conducted an in-depth analysis of these funded projects. This analysis involved the use of an internally developed, non-hierarchical classification system comprising nearly 900 terms. Through this approach, the ERC was able to capture the scientific essence of funded projects, highlight interdisciplinary areas and synergies, and identify the valuable contributions of ERC frontier research in addressing global challenges.

As a result of this effort, a series of downloadable factsheets has been compiled on this page. The overview factsheet (PDF) presents general statistics regarding the ERC's H2020 project portfolio and highlights key information from all the factsheets, providing a glimpse into their contents.
Additionally, there is a collection of 25 factsheets that contain data from the ERC evaluation panels in the Starting, Consolidator, or Advanced Grant schemes. These factsheets offer a comprehensive overview of the projects funded across the 25 ERC evaluation panels, which are categorized into three scientific domains: Life Sciences (LS) (PDF), Physical Sciences and Engineering (PE) (PDF), and Social Sciences and Humanities (SH) (PDF).
Furthermore, a dedicated factsheet focuses specifically on projects funded under the Synergy Grant scheme (PDF). Together, these factsheets provide a distinctive and valuable insight into the cutting-edge research landscape within the ERC project portfolio.
Furthermore, policy factsheets on three key policy areas of the European Union were published: Europe Fit for the Digital Age (PDF), European Green Deal (PDF) and EU4Health (PDF).
A summary of the findings can be found in this ERC press release.

The UNCHAIN project, ‘urban logistics and planning: anticipating urban freight generation and demand including digitalisation of urban freight’ obtained funding from the Horizon Europe’s Mobility Cluster. The project focuses on breaking down data silos and promoting public-private data exchange across a unified European mobility data space, enabling more informed decisions and greater efficiency. The City of Mechelen is a partner in the project and takes on the role of ‘follower city’: it will work alongside the primary demonstration sites (in Madrid, Berlin and Florence) to maximize the geographical coverage and replicability of solutions across Europe. Mechelen aims to test 2 concrete solutions in the UNCHAIN project, with the aim to help addressing its current and future challenges in urban freight distribution.
