Scope
Expected Impact: Supported SEAPs are expected to rent office space, recruit personnel and start and uphold operations for a duration of at least one year. Objective: This call aims to provide support for functioning of established SEAPs, including for the purpose of establishing, managing and maintaining defence industrial readiness pools. Scope: Proposals shall aim to support established SEAPs in their initial operations for a duration of at least one year. Budget The Commission is considering a total budget of EUR 10 000 000 for the call for proposals. The maximum EU contribution per funded project will not exceed EUR 2 000 00 0 allowing several proposals to be funded. Depending on the number and quality of received proposals and the requested Union financial contributions, the Commission may decide to reallocate budget between calls
Get told when something changes
Most institutions find out about a call with three weeks left. We write when something opens, moves or closes that fits what you work on, with the deadline, the fit and the funder's own exclusion clauses quoted. Nothing in a quiet week. Free, and one click to leave.
Starting from the programme you are reading: European Defence Fund (EDF) — change it below if you like.
Leave the second box empty and you get whatever opened or changed recently, closing soonest. Fill it in and it ranks against your words instead: that is the difference between a list and a shortlist.
Scientific Network Management will send you the current list for these terms, and after that only what changes: a call that opens, a deadline that shifts, a clause that rules you out. Nothing is sent when nothing has moved. One click to stop, in every message.
One confirmation email and nothing else until you click it. No tracking pixels, no sharing, one click to unsubscribe.

A funding strategy reads your institution's own published record against the calls that are open, and says in writing which are worth the year and which to decline, with the reason for each.
