FinnCERES Novel Openings 2020 call
The total funding in this call is €300k + €300k (Aalto + VTT). Expected that 2-3 projects will be funded, with a total funding of €100-150k per partner.
The thematic areas for 2020 call are:
1. (Bio)degradation and recyclability of bio-based polymers or bioproducts
2. Carbon materials and biochars
3. Disruptive methods to enhance the strength of fibers and fiber structures
4. Biocomposite solutions
Please find further information on the .
Additionally, to simplify co-partnering between Aalto and VTT, we have opened a Teams workspace to serve as a discussion forum. In case you don’t yet have access to Eduuni or Teams space, please contact info@finnceres.fi.
Deadline: The project proposals must be submitted to info (at) finnceres.fi by 3.5.2020 at 12.00.
For questions, please send a note to Stina Grönqvist or Jukka Hassinen, our FinnCERES Flagship Managers
