There is time until 15 March 2023 to submit projects and take part in the new Uni-Impresa 2022 call for applications. The University of Padua thus plans on encouraging the development of joint projects with external entities as well as partnerships aimed at enriching the territory in terms of innovation, and economic and social development.

UNI-IMPRESA was established in 2017 to promote activities addressing the development of relations with the business world, and knowledge transfer between academic and financial scenes. With Uni-Impresa calls for proposals, the University of Padua co-funds university facilities (Departments and Centres) that submit joint research projects with private and public partners. The initiative requires a cash contribution from the partners at least equal to that of the University.

Research activities, applied to the partner’s economic sector of reference, may be carried out in university facilities, at the partners’ premises, and in testing and experimentation sites most suitable to conduct the research. The research will have a duration of twenty-four months.

More details on the initiative and the call for applications can be found here.
