Climate Tech grants in Switzerland

Open

Funds two €6.5M research projects tracking why insect populations are collapsing and testing ways to reverse it, pollinators aside.

Open

Funds two €5M research consortia building tools that map ecosystem responses to climate and policy pressures, verified in real biogeographic case studies.

Open

Funds two €6.5M research projects building the tools to predict biodiversity loss and keep protected areas working as pressures intensify.

Open

Funds two €6M projects that show how farmers can earn from carbon and biodiversity credits without shrinking Europe's food supply.

Open

Funds two €4M projects for European consortia building bio-based products and studying whether people will actually adopt them.

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 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 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

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 €3.25M projects that turn sustainable biomass or bio-based textile waste into high-performing, circular fibres.

Funds transnational raw-materials research projects worth up to €2 million each.

Open

Pays research consortiums roughly €3-4 million to map the skills young people and workers need for the green transition in one high-impact sector and how to teach them.

Open

Funds a €20M facility for organisations that blend public grants with EIB-backed bank loans to finance local climate-adaptation projects, up to €800K each.

Open

Funds a €10M project that runs a climate-adaptation hub in every EU country, linking national, regional and local governments.

Open

Funds €6M projects for research consortia piloting nature-based flood and drought fixes across Europe's canal and river freight network.

Open

Funds a €5M project that turns Adaptation Mission pilots into a ready-to-use knowledge base for regions and local authorities.

Open

Funds a single €9M project that consolidates reference climate data and standardises the climate services behind Europe's adaptation policy.

Open

Funds one €5M project to connect Europe's climate adaptation and disaster risk communities into shared guidance for regional and local authorities.
