JARVIS is a Horizon Europe-funded project accelerating the adoption of AI-powered human-robot collaboration (HRC) in European manufacturing. The project runs multiple open calls for SMEs and startups to develop and pilot AI-driven robotics solutions.
The Co-development Track (Open Call 2) provides up to €100,000 per project to enhance the JARVIS framework by developing new modular human-robot interaction technologies, validating advanced collaborative robotics components up to TRL6, and accelerating their uptake in real industrial environments.
The Technology Adopters Pilot Track offers up to €130,000 per project for 10-month pilots addressing specific human-robot interaction challenges. All funding is equity-free. Successful consortia also gain access to the JARVIS ecosystem of technology providers, end-users, and research experts.
Proposals must address challenges centered on human-robot interaction and infrastructure inspection using AI-driven multimodal interaction for advanced collaborative robotics applications.

Yes — AI tools like Granted can help research funders, draft proposal sections, and check compliance. However, always review and customize AI-generated content to reflect your organization's unique strengths and the specific requirements of the solicitation.
Review timelines vary by funder. Federal agencies typically take 3-6 months from submission to award notification. Foundation grants may be faster, often 1-3 months. Check the program's timeline in the official solicitation for specific dates.
Many federal programs offer multi-year funding or allow competitive renewals. Check the official solicitation for continuation and renewal policies. Non-competing continuation applications are common for multi-year awards.
The 2026 International Joint Initiative for Research Harnessing Disruptive Technologies to Address Global Challenges is a multi-country collaborative funding program coordinated by Canada's IDRC and the New Frontiers in Research Fund (NFRF). The initiative funds international research teams applying disruptive technologies including AI, machine learning, and data science to address global development challenges. Project teams must secure funding from at least three participating organizations and include researchers from Canada and at least one country outside the IDRC consortium. Participating countries include Canada, Ghana, Indonesia, Namibia, Rwanda, and Zimbabwe, with each national funding agency setting its own eligibility criteria and maximum grant amounts. The mandatory Notice of Intent was due March 3, 2026, with Letters of Intent due June 9, 2026. This initiative specifically supports research partnerships between the Global North and Global South, leveraging AI and emerging technologies for development impact in areas such as health, agriculture, climate, and governance.
AGILE (Agile and Rapid Defence Innovation) is a new fast-track funding programme proposed by the European Commission in March 2026 to accelerate the deployment of defence technologies from development to operational use within 1-3 years. The initial pilot allocates at least €115 million to support approximately 20-30 projects. AGILE focuses specifically on disruptive defence innovations including mission-driven AI systems for military decision-making and situational awareness, autonomous systems, quantum computing, advanced robotics, drones, and counter-UAS (C-UAS) technologies. Unlike traditional EU programmes, AGILE provides up to 100% funding for all eligible costs and includes a retroactive clause allowing companies to claim expenses incurred up to 3 months before the application deadline. The programme aims to reduce the application-to-grant period to just 4 months, dramatically faster than existing EU instruments. AGILE is designed specifically to support small and medium-sized enterprises and startups with innovative defence technologies. The programme is pending formal adoption by the European Parliament and Council and is expected to become operational in 2027.
