POSTPONED: FARIAincubator: Research Council of Finland-Business Finland-NSF joint call: Bioeconomy

Unfortunately, tomorrow’s webinar on the joint call between the Research Council of Finland, Business Finland and the National Science Foundation (NSF) will have to be postponed.

The reason is that there have been some delays in the call process, which means that the NSF Global Centers Program cannot participate in any public event about this call before everything has been cleared and made public.

We apologize for the inconvenience, and we will issue a new date for the webinar as soon as possible.

The Research Council of Finland and Business Finland are partners in a new multilateral funding opportunity by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and its Global Centers Program. The Global Centers Program is a collaboration program between the NSF and several international partners to address global challenges that cannot be solved by any single country.

The title for the 2024 competition of the Global Centers program is Use-Inspired Research Addressing Global Challenges through the Bioeconomy and may include research from any combination of research disciplines supported by NSF.

Speakers:

Risto Vilkko, Senior Science Adviser, Research Council of Finland

Ilmari Absetz, Chief Funding Adviser, Business Finland

Karen Lips, Program Director, U.S. National Science Foundation

The presentations will be followed by a Q&A session

Moderator:

Mari Olafson Lundemo, Senior Advisor, FARIA/University of Helsinki
