For participation in the EU Framework Programme, in general, several partners from different member states or EU-associated countries are required (please find the exact terms for participation in the call texts of the specific programme)

Partner search is one of the most time consuming tasks in project preparation. We can support you! The FFG is involved in many international networks, and our experts are happy to help!
You would like to coordinate an EU project and are looking for suitable partners? Or you would like to participate as a partner in a project, and want to get in touch with a coordinator?

There are several other services to help you find cooperation partners in research and development projects:

Partner Search Databases
A possibility for partner search are European databases, where you will find interested organisations and their expertise – you can search by type of programme, type of organisation, country, or other criteria. Mostly, you can also publish your own profile.
