The GÉANT Innovation Programme is a unique opportunity to enable initial development, establish a proof of concept or testing of new ideas, with lightweight, administrative constraints. Its first open call was launched on February 23, 2021, looking for small research projects of up to EUR30k, usually taking 3-6 months but with a maximum duration of 9 months and finishing no later than the end of December 2021.
Member NRENs from the GÉANT Association or legal entities from one of its ‘connected institutions’, including universities, research or education institutes or institutions connected to an NREN, are welcomed and eligible for funding under this programme.
The first deadline is April 30, 2021. The second deadline is May 28, 2021.
The call will remain open until the complete allocation of funding or until further notice. Monthly reminders of the call will be issued, and evaluations will be done not later than four weeks after a proposal is received.
