Flagship Project Call 2026: Resilient and Secure Technologies for Defence and Mobility
Funds dual-use R&D consortia on defence and mobility resilience technologies.
Innosuisse and Switzerland's armaments office armasuisse jointly run this call under Innosuisse's Flagship Initiative, which funds systemic, multi-partner innovation projects. Applicants submit through Innosuisse's Innolink portal, guided by published guidelines, an FAQ, and a webinar deck; partner-search for consortia runs through the b2match platform.
The call funds consortia developing resilient positioning/navigation/timing systems, defence-relevant photonics for secure communications and sensing, and drone detection and counter-UAV technology. Every proposal must serve both civilian and defence purposes at once -- projects aimed at only one side are excluded.
