Funding schemes (1)

Collaborative projects

• Trans-national consortia

• Innovation, New knowledge and Technology

• Size, scope and internal organisation of projects can vary

• Small or medium-scale focused research projects/ Large-scale integrating projects


Funding schemes (2)

Coordination and support actions

• networking, exchanges, trans-national access to research infrastructures, studies, conferences, etc.

Individual projects

• Basic research via ERC - “Ideas”

Training and career development of researchers

• “People” grants for researchers
