FNR Luxembourg - Public Funding For Companies by Andreea MONNAT

FNR.LU Public Funding For Companies Andreea MONNAT

• Grants!

• Application process and deadlines are public and very firm • More support for questions, policies/procedures, and more opportunities for personal contact and/or site visits • Areas of focus do not change that rapidly, so continual funding may be easier to predict • More likely to pay “all” project costs and/or cover indirect costs • “Common” application forms and prescribed formats to decrease re-learning appropriate content and form

• Lengthy proposal requirements and complex application, administration, and compliance processes • Often required institutional costsharing.

• Reviewers may tend to favour established applicants • Difficulty in proposing new or high-risk approaches to a problem

Why are PPPs interesting for companies?

Access to technology, labs, people and skills
