widerAdvance Facility

The Dissemination and Exploitation Facility for Widening projects

The widerAdvance Facility is a Horizon Europe initiative dedicated to bridging the innovation divide in Widening Countries and Outermost Regions. By supporting researchers, research managers, and technology transfer professionals, the project ensures that Key Exploitable Results from EU-funded research translate into real societal and economic impact.

widerAdvance offers a comprehensive suite of services, including tailored advisory support, capacity-building programs, matchmaking events, and policy recommendations. These activities are designed to enhance research valorisation, strengthen intellectual property strategies, and improve standardisation pathways.

Through its structured Academy, engaging webinars, study visits, and synergies with local stakeholders, widerAdvance ensures that research from underrepresented regions gains visibility, funding opportunities, and practical pathways to market adoption.
