Guide for EU Stakeholders on Chinese programmes

As part of the project Advance EU Access to Financial Incentives for Innovation in China, a Guide for EU stakeholders on Chinese national STI funding programmes has been published.

The Guide to European Chinese programmes introduces the five main funding programmes of the Chinese national funding system for science, technology and innovation, explaining the rules for international participation and proposing recommendations for European stakeholders. It represents an exhaustive and up-to-date summary of the current status and opportunities provided by newly-reformed Chinese national STI funding system. The Guide to European Chinese programmes is free and available for download from this link (registration is needed).

In addition, a series of ad hoc studies on specific topics relating to Chinese national STI programmes were also produced under the previous phase of the project (downloadable from the “Resources” section):
