European Commission FP7
Brief description:
The Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) brings all research-related European Union initiatives together to form a common drive towards increased economic growth, competitiveness and the creation of job opportunities. It works alongside other initiatives, which focus on innovation, education and training, cross-regional developments and other areas. FP7 covers four categories - co-operation, ideas, people and capacities. It uses its funding to support a wide range of applicants, including public bodies, academic institutions, research agencies and varying sizes of business within the private sector.
