Ireland to target €1bn from EU research fund
Wednesday, February 01, 2012
Ireland will target winning at least €1 billion for scientific research from the EU’s fund, and a conference to launch the bid will be held in Brussels next year.
It will be hosted by Sean Kelly, Ireland South MEP, who held a high-level discussion on the future of scientific funding opportunities in the European Parliament.
The EU’s research budget, Horizon 2020, worth €80 billion will come on stream in 2014 and will cover a seven-year period. It is the single largest research fund in the world.
