TUBITAK 1832 International Lead Project
Funds Turkish-led international consortia under TUBITAK's flagship lead programme for large strategic projects led by local partners and global collaborators.
TUBITAK 1832 International Lead Project sits under TUBITAK, Turkey's national science and technology research council, and it is built for Turkish-led R and D consortia with international partners. The programme is positioned as a large-scale strategic research route rather than a small local award. Awards run from TRY 2 million to TRY 30 million and follow an annual cycle. The programme requires a consortium, and applicants must be for-profit organisations registered and operating in Turkey. Universities, research organisations, and individuals are excluded, and no match funding is required. The strongest fit is a company that can lead a multi-party technical project with enough scope to justify national-level support. Successful applications should show Turkish leadership, international expertise that is genuinely needed, and a work plan that is large enough, structured enough, and ambitious enough to stand up as a strategic R and D effort. Its annual cadence makes it a repeat route for long-running industrial research collaborations, not a one-off special case.
