⚠️ Spammers from a site called SocialDB.xyz seem to be flooding Mastodon members with emails claiming to offer sponsorship opportunities (which is dubious to say the least).

Japan officially has joined Horizon Europe, our flagship research and innovation programme.
Japan is the 23rd associated country and the most populous, bringing one of the world’s most advanced research ecosystems to our scientific network.
