Sanctuary of Creation at Horizon Europe’s One-Year Celebration: Catalysing a New Era of UK-EU Scientific Synergy

Yesterday, Sanctuary of Creation was honoured to participate in a landmark event hosted by UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) and the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) at The Kia Oval, a symbolic venue for collaboration and precision.

Marking a pivotal milestone, the celebration of one year of the UK’s association with Horizon Europe rekindled a profound narrative of scientific diplomacy and transnational innovation. It was electrifying to witness the UK’s re-engagement with the EU’s premier research framework, a bold affirmation that the frontiers of knowledge and discovery are best advanced through collective intellect and shared vision.

We had the privilege of hearing from esteemed leaders including Lord Vallance, Minister of State for Science, Research, and Innovation; Professor Christopher Smith, UKRI’s International Champion; and Cyril Robin-Champigneul, Head of Economic and Trade Affairs at the EU Delegation to the UK. Their reflections underscored the imperative of forging resilient, dynamic partnerships in an era where science is both a beacon of progress and a bridge between nations.

For Sanctuary of Creation, a nexus of neuroadaptive innovation in brain and cognitive sciences, this convergence epitomises the catalytic power of global collaboration. Our commitment to pioneering digital therapeutics that intricately weave AI with trauma-responsive design resonates deeply within this evolving innovation ecosystem.

As we navigate the complex challenges of our time, events like this reaffirm that science, technology, and diplomacy are inextricably linked forces shaping a future where shared knowledge fuels human flourishing beyond borders.

The horizon of possibility has never been more expansive. We are inspired, invigorated, and ready to contribute to this audacious journey of discovery and transformation.
