Seed funding program 5G Corridor Munich - Prague │ Bavarian State Chancellery
The program is aimed at advanced scientists (postdoc and above) working at a Bavarian state university or state university of applied sciences as defined by the Bavarian State Ministry of Science and the Arts. The seed funding program should be used for networking purposes, as well as promote the establishment of bilateral research projects in the 5G Corridor Munich - Prague. The seed funding grants are intended as a first stage for project set-up and are to be supplemented with other funding instruments during the course of the project. The seed funding amounts to a maximum of EUR 7,500 (lump sum) and supports project-related travel and accommodation costs of scientists from Bavaria and the Czech Republic who want to establish a cooperation project in the areas of the 5G Corridor Munich - Prague. The seed funding can also support a single project-specific two- to three-month short-term research stay of PhD students in the partner institution per funding measure. On behalf of the Bavarian State Chancellery, the 5G Corridor Munich - Prague in the WKS Bavaria-Québec/Alberta/International, Bavarian Research Alliance (BayFOR), manages this program. As a first step, a personal meeting to discuss the respective objectives and modalities before each submission needs to be arranged. Project ideas are accepted on an ongoing basis.

Horizon Europe │ European Union
In 2018, the European Commission proposed an ambitious €95.5 billion research and innovation programme - Horizon Europe - to succeed Horizon 2020. Horizon Europe is the research and innovation framework programme running from 2021-2027. The first work programmes were published in June 2021. Horizon Europe will support European partnerships with EU countries, the private sector, foundations, and other stakeholders. The aim is to deliver on global challenges and industrial modernisation through concerted research and innovation efforts. For individual calls visit the EU Funding & Tenders Portal. In Germany, the BMBF is funding measures for the preparation and drafting of proposals for calls in the second pillar of Horizon Europe (Global Challenges and European Industrial Competitiveness). The programme is called European Innovation Union and supports applicants with a maximum of €50.000 over a period of up to 12 months. The annual deadlines are January 31, Mai 31, and September 30. |
EUROPEAN COOPERATION IN SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY (COST) │ EUROPEAN UNION
|
European Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST) │ European Union
Deadline: October 20, 2022 Value: dependent upon proposal The European Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST) is a funding organization for the creation of research networks, called COST Actions. These networks offer an open space for collaboration among scientists across Europe (and beyond) and thereby give impetus to research advancements and innovation. COST is bottom up, this means that researchers can create a network – based on their own research interests and ideas – by submitting a proposal to the COST Open Call. The proposal can be in any science field. COST Actions are highly interdisciplinary and open. It is possible to join ongoing Actions, which therefore keep expanding over the funding period of four years. They are multi-stakeholder, often involving the private sector, policymakers, as well as civil society. COST funding intends to complement national research funds, as they are exclusively dedicated to cover collaboration activities, such as workshops, conferences, working group meetings, training schools, short-term scientific missions, and dissemination and communication activities.
