Success Stories

"Crowdhelix's matchmaking events have proven to be very meaningful to me as a consortium coordinator. I would not have been able to find the partners I need without their Horizon Europe Cluster 2 session in London this Summer. As a result of this international session, we'll be submitting a proposal for an upcoming CL2 deadline in 2026."

“Crowdhelix has been genuinely useful for us at UCLan Cyprus. The topic-focused Helix Communities make it easy to find credible partners for Horizon Europe calls, and the platform’s alerts help us catch relevant opportunities early. Through Crowdhelix I’ve connected with strong consortia leads, expanded my network beyond Cyprus, and progressed several proposal ideas that would have been hard to assemble otherwise. Overall, it’s a high-value channel for collaboration and visibility for our research strengths.”

As part of a Crowdhelix supported Horizon Europe event in May, 2024 in Zagreb, Croatia, I was able to connect with a number of international partners that led to the formation of the BTL-COP consortium. Led by the University of Greenwich, this Horizon Europe CL3 proposal focuses on building trust, in-depth knowledge-sharing, and leadership in community policing to tackle poverty-related crime to develop safer neighbourhoods in UK and EU communities. This proposal was funded in the Spring of 2025. We are most grateful for the ongoing support of Crowdhelix.

Thank you Crowdhelix team for hosting the Circular Economy & Materials Matchmaking Event in Barcelona. As a first time attendee representing the Carbon to Metal Coating Institute, at Queen's University in Canada, I had the opportunity to initiate the formation of a consortium with partners with successful experience in HE Pillar 2. Crowdhelix goes beyond expectations by ensuring they connect you to partners that will meet your needs. The agenda is compact and effective, allowing everyone to openly share ideas and build proposals. I look forward to working with the new collaboration formed!

"Following a post on the Crowdhelix platform over last summer, we received a great number of responses and successfully identified partners for a WIDERA proposal focusing on women in science, highlighting the importance of gender equity in research and innovation."

"After adding two posts to Crowdhelix in Autumn of 2024, I was able to source the relevant expertise and partners needed for one new proposal in the area of biomass fermentation, and one existing project needing an independent ethics advisor. It's great to have a platform like Crowdhelix at our disposal."

“Crowdhelix’s ‘Leveraging Science with AI Tools’ training event provided real-world practical strategies to enhance research efficiency and creativity. I gained valuable insights into brainstorming innovative ideas, streamlining workflows, and boosting outreach efforts. The session’s engaging and forward-thinking approach made it thoroughly enjoyable, and it highlighted Crowdhelix’s dedication to empowering researchers with cutting-edge tools and resources.”

"We are delighted to inform the Crowdhelix team that a Durham University based PI from our School of Modern Languages and Culture (MLAC) has been successful in securing €3.8 million for the RELISH (Reframing European gastronomy Legacy through Innovation, Sustainability and Heritage) project funded from the HORIZON-CL2-2024-HERITAGE-01-04 call. Through using Crowdhelix we were able to secure a key partner for our multi-disciplinary consortium that enabled the submission and contributed to the success of this proposal. We look forward to building on this outcome in 2025."
