Grants in Germany

Open

Funds research consortia developing the pre-normative science behind future standards for bio-based chemicals, polymers and other bio-based products.

Open

Funds three €4M lump-sum grants for industrial and environmental biotech — synthetic biology, gene editing, biofoundries — not health biotech or biofuels.

Open

Funds two €3M projects that build the monitoring tools and EU-wide data to map how much biomass Europe supplies and needs, tested in at least 10 countries.

Open

Funds two €5M projects turning marine organisms — algae, fungi, invertebrates — into safer bio-based replacements for adhesives, coatings and chemicals.

Open

Funds a single €3M contract for policy researchers to run advisory and benchmarking work that helps EU governments grow their bioeconomies — not a lab grant.

Open

Funds two €5M consortia building city and regional systems that collect, sort and repair textiles instead of sending them to landfill.

Open

Funds two €5M projects building the tech and the market to make recycled electronics a real source of critical raw materials for Europe.

Open

Funds consortia developing biotech and nature-based decontamination methods for war-damaged land, water and air, proven on real sites in Ukraine.

Open

Funds one €10M project to build the scientific methods and indicators that track how noise from human activity disrupts marine ecosystems across EU seas.

Open

Funds industrial consortia that recycle multilayer plastic food packaging back into food-contact-safe plastic, at scale.

Open

Funds demonstrations that separate poly-blend garments and home fabrics so European recyclers can turn them into new fibre, up to €6M per project.

Open

Funds two €6M projects that store wet-season water underground so farms can draw on it when drought hits.

Open

Pays up to two industrial teams to advance manufacturing readiness for affordable Ka-band satellite user terminals for IRIS² and GOVSATCOM.

Funds EU bio-based innovation projects with up to Euro20 million per topic.

Open

Funds one €20M innovation project that scales alternative proteins, oils, fibres or specialty carbohydrates into safe, accepted food ingredients.

Open

Funds one €20M project that turns bio-based chemicals and ingredients into safer, sustainable home and personal care products at industrial scale.

Open

Funds one consortium to run a help-line and outreach facility that raises suppliers' and retailers' awareness of EU ecodesign and energy-labelling rules.

Open

Funds €7M projects that make bio-based additives safer and easier to recycle or biodegrade in products across at least two markets.

Open

Funds one €1.2M project to map barriers and build industry roadmaps for switching from fossil-based to bio-based feedstocks and processes.

Open

Funds one €20M industrial project that scales biotechnology into sustainable biorefineries and market-ready bio-based products.

Open

Funds two €7M projects that make bio-based packaging films and coatings perform better, work in factories and support circular end-of-life routes.

Open

Funds two €7M projects that make durable products from renewable feedstocks and give cross-linked plastics viable recycling, reuse or upcycling routes.

Open

Funds two €7M projects that turn farm, forestry, aquatic and urban bio-waste into market-ready chemicals, materials and ingredients.

Open

Funds one €20M industrial project making safe bio-based fertilisers or crop-protection products that work in real fields.
