It is particularly important that the results of their work find practical application. Through the new NCBR initiative, we want to strengthen the transfer of knowledge from science to the agri-food industry – said Wojciech Murdzek, Minister of Science and Higher Education.

The support can be received for industrial research, experimental development and pre-implementation works. The only obligatory element of the project are experimental development works.
