Switzerland has re-associated to Horizon Europe, creating expanded collaboration pathways for New Zealand researchers to partner with Swiss teams on Horizon Europe projects.
This webinar will provide:
- An introduction to SNSF funding schemes and upcoming calls.
- Insights into Leading House Asia Pacific funding calls, aimed at fostering research collaboration between Switzerland and the Asia Pacific region, including New Zealand.
