Recently, the State Research Agency (AEI) has provided us with information about the new call for Public-Private Collaboration Projects, which succeeds the previous call “Collaboration Challenges”. 

  • This call will finance experimental development projects in collaboration between companies and research organizations
  • In several thematic priorities, including Food, bioeconomy, natural resources, and the environment.
  • It has a budget of 375 Million € (150 M€ grant, 225 M€ loans).

This call has not yet been published, but the AEI anticipates that it will open at the end of November 2021 and will remain open for a period of two or three weeks.

Therefore, from BIOVEGEN we have prepared a brief informative summary about the main characteristics of the call, in order to support and expedite the formation of interest consortia for our members.
