FET-OPEN – NOVEL IDEAS FOR RADICALLY NEW TECHNOLOGIES
FETOPEN-01-2016-2017: FET-Open research and innovation actions
This topic supports the early stages of research to establish a new technological possibility. Proposals are sought for collaborative research with all of the following characteristics (‘FET gatekeepers’):
Long-term vision Foundational
Breakthrough High-risk
Novelty Interdisciplinary
More information can be found here.
Next cut-off date: 17 January 2017
FETOPEN-04-2016-2017: FET Innovation Launchpad
Short and focused individual or collaborative actions to take out of the lab a promising result or proof-of-concept that originated from a FET-funded project and to get it on the way to social or economic innovation through new entrepreneurship or otherwise. The action will support the transformation of that specific research result into a credible offering for economic or social impact, by exploring the feasibility of an exploitation path and by coordinating and supporting the assembling of the right knowledge, skills and resources and thus serves as a launch pad for exploitation.
More information can be found here.
Next cut-off date: 27 September 2017
