It supports the transfer of basic scientific knowledge — particularly from CDG-funded research units — into innovative commercial applications through spin-offs and start-ups. The programme is financed by the Fonds Zukunft Österreich (Future Austria Fund / FZO), which channels Austrian National Bank profits into R&D. The first call deadline was 20 December 2024.
