International funding opportunities
The 7th Framework Programme (FP7) of the EU represents one of the most important funding initiatives in Europe. In the framework programme the scientific as well as the technological objectives and the financial framework are clearly defined. The broad objectives of FP7 are divided into four categories: Cooperation, Ideas, People and Capacities. In the period 2007-2013, the European Commission therefore supports companies and universities with a total budget of 53 billion euros.
The European Commission regularly publishes new calls in various subject areas. EUrelations AG supports you in finding the best call and in submitting a proposal as well as in implementing FP7 projects.
In addition to FP7, there a many further funding possibilities. But getting an overview of all initiatives needs certain know-how and several years of experience in the field of research funding. We would like to help you to get an overview of the international research funding opportunities.
