Changes in the Funding Landscape
Thursday 5 March 2026, 15.00 - 17.00 (PLNT)
Application pressure, national budget cuts, FP10, economic sovereignty, dual use, AI ...the funding landscape is changing. Add to this geopolitical instability, restrictions on collaboration with certain countries and companies, as well as a decline in academic freedom, and you might start to panic. In this recurring meeting, we will update you again on the new policy developments that will be driving the research funding programmes in the next 5-7 years. This background information will be invaluable when setting out your strategy for the next five years as well as preparing applications to future calls.
This briefing is intended for mid-career and senior researchers, Institute management, and research support staff.
Speakers: Anke Klerkx, Zsuzsanna Angyal, Anouschka Versleijen
