πŸŒ€ Blockchain Innovation in Horizon Europe — A New Frontier for Impac




Blockchain and distributed ledger technologies (DLT) are no longer fringe tech—they’re becoming core technologies in European R&I agendas, especially as the EU paves the way for trust, transparency, and decentralised solutions.

πŸ“ˆ Recent Developments to Watch

  • The European Blockchain Sandbox has selected its third cohort, enabling real‑world testing of blockchain use cases across sectors, fostering regulatory innovation and adoption.

  • The EU has supported over 200 blockchain & Web3 projects, investing hundreds of millions across Horizon 2020 and Horizon Europe calls.

  • In forestry and environmental management, the MoniFun grant is driving a pilot that uses blockchain to monitor multifunctional forest data, offering up to €60,000 in funding.

  • The TRICK project is integrating blockchain with circular economy models to help SMEs adopt sustainable practices through traceability and data platforms.

  • New calls under Internet Architecture & Decentralised Technologies (RIA) in Horizon Europe are opening scope for blockchain and Web3 infrastructure solutions.

These developments signal that blockchain is becoming an enabling technology in EU research, especially where trust, data integrity, and decentralisation meet challenges of sustainability, supply chains, and digital governance.
