GÉANT Innovation Programme

Funding for the GÉANT Community (GÉANT Member NRENs and their ‘connected’ institutions) to enable initial development, establish a proof of concept or testing of new innovative concepts.

GÉANT is a membership organisation acting with and for its members to further research and education networking in Europe and globally.

Launched in February 2021, the GÉANT Innovation Programme supports innovative ideas demonstrating societal, scientific and economic impact on research areas such as networking, cloud, security, trust and identity and education.

Any subject area or topic will be considered for funding, providing that it falls within GÉANT’s Community remit.

Adaptation of previous European Comission work is eligible – as long as the benefit is for the R&E community and it is genuinely innovation and useful.
