FRIPRO & Enspire Science
FRIPRO seeks to fund high-gain research that challenges important subjects and leads to significant breakthroughs on a global scale. A closer look at FRIPRO’s evaluation criteria unravels a striking resemblance and similar spirit to the written and “unwritten” requirements of the highly prestigious ERC funding scheme – of which Enspire Science is a leading expert.
Although different in structure, the key FRIPRO award criteria follow similar attributes, expectations and excellence standards, as in ERC.
Enspire Science has been leading researchers on their ERC journey since 2007, and working directly with FRIPRO applicants since 2017. As such, we have a dedicated and customized methodology which addresses all the unique aspects of the FRIPRO funding scheme.
During our work together, we’ll ensure to evaluate the following FRIPRO expectations:
- Ground-breaking nature
- High-risk
- High-gain
- Innovative and bold approach
- And more…
