Brno University of Technology to Welcome Researchers from Across Europe. International EULiST Horizon Europe Matchmaking Event with Crowdhelix Coming in January
On 20–21 January 2027, the Faculty of Business and Management at Brno University of Technology will host the international event Co-Designing the Future: Engineering Technologies for a Resilient and Human-Centric Society.
Organised in cooperation with the global innovation network Crowdhelix, the event will bring European researchers, industry experts and representatives of innovation leaders to Brno, where they will form project consortia for upcoming Horizon Europe calls directly at BUT.
This major international event represents an important strategic opportunity for BUT, primarily by placing the university’s research teams at the heart of emerging European projects. This will strengthen their chances of securing prestigious European grants under Pillar II of Horizon Europe for 2027. The event will focus on key areas including Health, the Clean Industrial Deal, Civil Security for Society (CL3), and
Digital, Industry and Space (CL4).

Leading European Institutions Coming to Brno
The Crowdhelix network organises matchmaking events at leading research and academic institutions worldwide and across Europe. Previous events have brought together representatives of renowned institutions such as Imperial College London, Karolinska Institutet, KTH Royal Institute of Technology and Queen's University.
The two-day programme will feature short project pitch sessions, expert panel discussions and intensive breakout sessions focused on specific calls and the development of joint project proposals.
Registration is currently open primarily to international research organisations, universities and industry partners. The aim is to attract partners to Brno who are interested in collaborating with BUT’s leading research teams and infrastructure, building strong international consortia and jointly submitting competitive proposals to Horizon Europe calls.
