Business Finland invites Finnish research organizations, universities, municipalities, and companies to a national online info session on the Driving Urban Transitions (DUT) Partnership Joint Call 2025!
The DUT Partnership is a European co-funded initiative under Horizon Europe that is designed to support cities in their transitions towards a sustainable urban future by projects that combine research, innovation, and real-life implementation. It aims to strengthen collaboration between researchers, city authorities, companies, and civil society.
The 2025 Joint Call aims to accelerate the transition towards sustainable, livable, and inclusive cities by focusing on three interconnected themes:
- 15-minute City (15mC)
- Positive Energy Districts (PED)
- Circular Urban Economies (CUE)
This info session provides an overview of the 2025 call topics, funding opportunities for Finnish applicants, and practical guidance on building international consortia. The event is especially relevant for companies, cities, research organizations, and public-sector actors aiming to collaborate at the EU level on urban sustainability.
