Clustering of existing, large PPP’s in three TKI’s (SPM, BBE & ISPT)
Innovation contract: Natural link between fundamental scientific research <-> existing and future PPP’s
Small, to-the-point programmes: Tailor-made solutions
High-quality scientific research on topics relevant to industry
TKI New Chemical Innovations focuses on new developments in existing PPP’s and on new fields in
chemistry
Exploring new fields

Pipeline
For 2012/2013 up till now NWO invested ~M€ 10 in BBE under the top sector policy.
Investments in BBE will further increase, since:
Numbers on curiosity driven research (talent schemes and response-mode research) will appear by the end of 2013.
The Fund New Chemical Innovations is still open.Next ‘deadline’ for submitting projects: 24 September
