Future-Oriented Research Fields at Upper Austrian Non-University Research Institutions

Provincial programme (running 1 Jan 2022 – 31 Dec 2029) for developing and expanding future-oriented research fields at Upper Austrian non-university research institutions. Eligible are FFG-listed non-university institutions without university status and not COMET centres, with a durable public-benefit orientation and a ban on profit distribution. Support takes the form of non-repayable grants; the aim is a positive impact on Upper Austria as a research and business location. Not restricted to particular disciplines, but in practice oriented towards innovation and regional competitiveness.
