Ányos Jedlik Programme
Full name: Ányos Jedlik Programme
Description:
The national Ányos Jedlik Programme is the funding scheme for large-scale consortial research and development. The programme is only being introduced in 2005 as a successor to NKFP (National R&D Programme). However, the scale of the programme boosted: the minimum financial support in 2004 was HUF 100 million, whereas in 2005 it will be HUF 300 million - in the meantime the programme budget was slightly decreased, so concentration will be higher. The programme is similar to the EU's integrated funding scheme: industry-driven, large-scale research and development, with large grants awarded, but stringent rules and total accountability. There are five major sub-programmes: Life Sciences, Information and Communication Technologies, Environmental Protection, Agro-food Business and Biotechnology, Materials Science and a support programme: Social Challenges of Technological Development; Studies, Analyses, Concepts, where different rules apply.
The call is closed by now for 2005.
Project duration: 1 to 3 years
Budget: ca. EUR 44 million (HUF 11 billion) - for all subprogrammes
