Biotech grants in Sweden

Funds clinical trials of prophylactic vaccines against neglected tropical diseases such as schistosomiasis, leishmaniasis and leprosy in sub-Saharan Africa.

Closed

Pays deep-tech start-ups, SMEs and research organisations a €300,000 lump sum in Stage 1, then up to €2.5 million in Stage 2, to push high-risk breakthrough innovations that lack commercial uptake toward real-world, demand-tested deployment.
