After laying the foundations for interregional cooperation in recent months, the network is now entering the concrete implementation phase. SYSTEMEU strengthens innovation ecosystems across several European regions and promotes cooperation in the fields of energy, mobility and health. Parallel to Munich, corresponding meetings are taking place in the partner regions in Spain, Portugal, Romania and Bosnia-Herzegovina - with the aim of forming international consortia and developing joint project ideas.
In the workshop, participants receive a compact overview of the requirements of the call for proposals and the structure of the so-called cascade funding (FSTP). In addition, the format offers space for direct feedback on project ideas, targeted matchmaking with potential partners and support in developing initial approaches. This allows participants to refine their projects at an early stage and position themselves strategically for the call for proposals.
What participants can expect:
- Overview of funding opportunities and requirements of the €2.2 million call for proposals
- Project check with direct feedback on eligible ideas
- Matchmaking with partners from Upper Bavaria and the European SYSTEMEU regions
- Co-creation for the development of initial joint project approaches

SYSTEMEU is an initiative funded by the EU under Horizon Europe to strengthen interregional innovation ecosystems. In Bavaria, the project is being implemented by the Munich Innovation Ecosystem (MIE), the Bavarian Research Alliance (BayFOR) and the Strascheg Center for Entrepreneurship, among others.
