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 new open call was launched on October 1, 2025, looking generally for research projects of up to EUR 50k, for a max duration of 6 months. Project proposals over EUR 50K will be considered and are expected to demonstrate exceptional social and technical impact for GÉANT.
Member NRENs from the GÉANT Association and/or legal entities from one of its ‘connected institutions’, including universities, research or education institutes or institutions connected to an NREN, are welcome and eligible for funding under this programme.
Deadline: November 14, 2025.
