New period Experiment Grant Scheme opens
A new period of the Experiment Grant Scheme opens on 1 September. Are you a designer or maker active in the field of design, architecture or digital culture, or the crossovers between these fields, and do you have an idea for an experimental research project? If so, check to see if your project is eligible for a grant under the Experiment Grant Scheme.
1 September 2022
Under the Experiment Grant Scheme, you can apply for a grant of up to € 10,000 for a small-scale experiment-driven research project. This amount includes any co-financing or own resources and therefore represents the maximum project cost. The new period, with a grant ceiling of € 250,000, runs from 1 September to 15 November 2022. Applications can be submitted at any time – there is no deadline. However, don’t wait until the last day of the period. It’s important to remember that the grant scheme closes when the subsidy ceiling has been reached, and that applications are processed in the order of submission.
