On Tuesday the 16th of January at 1 PM to 2:30 PM Aarhus University and Innovation Fund Denmark (IFD) invites you to an open information meeting about IFD’s calls in 2018.

The information meeting will be held in Nobel Auditorium, Building 1482-105, Nobelparken.

The information meeting consists of two parts this year. First part is about Grand Solutions while the second part relates to IFD’s other funding instruments. A previously announced break between the two parts will be deleted so that the meeting is expected to end at approx. 2:30 p.m. (and not at 3 p.m. as previously annonced). Registration is not necessary.

Following the information meeting, the Innovation Fund Denmark holds an extra session for those who are particularly interested in the fund's new investment strategy "Future Society". This session requires registration on this link:

We will probably see additional thematic calls.
