As of 23 August 2024, the European Commission's eCORDA database recorded 1,361 funded participations for the Czech Republic in 956 Horizon Europe ("HE") projects. As of the same date, Czech participants had claimed a net EU contribution of €479 million. Among the 45 HE Member and Associated Countries, the Czech Republic has long maintained its 17th position in terms of both the number of participations and the net EU contribution.
By comparison, Poland has long been ranked 16th in both indicators (1,838 participations with a total claimed net EU contribution of €668 million), Slovenia is ranked 18th in participation (1,115 participations) and 19th in claimed EU funding (€357 million). The ranking of the Czech Republic, but also of Poland or Slovenia, fully corresponds to the overall economic performance of these countries - in terms of GDP per capita in purchasing power parity in 2023 (according to World Bank data), the Czech Republic was 19th among the EU member states and HE programme associated countries, Slovenia 18th.
