ADS comment on UK re-joining Horizon Europe
Commenting on the UK re-joining Horizon Europe, ADS Chief Executive, Kevin Craven said:
“ADS warmly welcomes the announcement today that the UK has finalised a deal with the EU on rejoining Horizon Europe, the EU R&D programme.
We have been consistently clear that the scheme will help drive the innovation and collaboration needed to develop the next generation of technologies to address a wide range of societal challenges.
The UK aerospace, defence, security, and space sectors had been leading participants and recipients of funding in its predecessor, and this will provide a welcome boost to scientific and industrial collaboration in our sectors.
We also welcome the news that the UK will rejoin Copernicus, the EU earth observation scheme, which the UK's rapidly growing space sector can play a leading role in supporting."
