SSF EU Horizon Europe Research Application Support

The Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research (SSF) announces SEK 10 million in a directed Call to support preparation of research applications targeting the European Union's Horizon Europe framework program for research and innovation. The Call aims to promote internationalization of Swedish research by stimulating increased Swedish participation in HEU Pillar 2 Global Challenges & European Industrial Competitiveness. The HEU-projects must be of strategic relevance for Sweden, benefiting the future competitiveness of Sweden. Selected projects will receive SSF-grants maximized to SEK 500,000 (including overheads) to cover costs for salaries, travel, and consultants in direct connection to the preparation of an HEU application. The Call is directed exclusively towards researchers in natural science, technology or medicine at Swedish universities or research institutes that apply for a HEU Pillar 2 Project Coordinator role. SSF will release funding upon notification that the HEU application has been registered as an eligible HEU-application and the relevant costs have been reported to SSF.
