Get ready to submit your applications! Let's shape the future together! #EmergingTechnologies #ResearchInnovation #ECT #FundingOpportunity #NBIF #TechForward
Over four calls of our Emerging Concepts and Technologies Research Program (ECT) plus our professional experiences as researchers, we have learned what are the common concerns researchers and entrepreneurs have about participating in a grant program. As a result, we have designed a program that addresses these aspects and adds value to the contribution agreements. Ownership - Lead applicants retain ownership of the project. Creative license - The program has priority research themes in order to address local and pressing needs, however, they are broad, and you decide topic and methodology. Independence - The ECT is designed to be non-prescriptive while purpose-driven. Net Zero Atlantic and proponents form a contract and then the project team works independently, including use of funds, scope, and schedule. Get ready for the call, opening October 22: https://lnkd.in/ecsHT93m
