Open call for Demonstrator projects
Demonstrator projects aim to disseminate findings in high-impact venues and contribute to industrial or societal transfer. Projects are expected to show novelty, high impact, and wide outreach. Researchers from the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), and Research Institutes of Sweden (RISE), are eligible to apply for funding under this call. Link to more information

Sixth call for Research Pairs projects
Researchers from the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) and Research Institutes of Sweden (RISE) are eligible to apply for funding under this call. The Research Pairs Projects call is a funding instrument designed to encourage collaboration between two early-career researchers and to identify new research collaborations that have the potential to evolve into significant scientific endeavors within the next 3-5 years.
