Eureka Network Projects
For Singapore companies who are looking to cooperate on joint Research & Development (R&D) projects.
About this programme
The Eureka Network Projects is a flexible funding programme for international R&D projects. This programme eases collaboration between organisations in Eureka countries and offers the freedom to design your project proposal and build your ideal consortium. We have various bilateral/multilateral CIP calls under the Eureka Network Projects (e.g. Singapore–Türkiye, Singapore–Republic of Korea, etc.).
The Network Projects also has an “Open Call” mechanism that allows projects to be submitted all year round. Singapore companies can submit projects through the Open Call, provided that the partner country is able to fund it too.
About Eureka Network
Eureka Network is the world’s biggest public network for international cooperation in R&D and innovation, present in over 45 countries.
Eureka was established in 1985 as an agreement between 18 countries and the European Commission to foster competitiveness and market integration and to encourage R&D cooperation. Since then, it has expanded to include 47 countries (in Europe and beyond) who share the same goals and provide national funding to organisations to support international industry-led R&D and co-innovation.
