Transnational Access Activities

To offer to the research & industrial

community a free access to CSP RIs

Joint Research Activities

To integrate the CSP RIs

complementary strengths by

fostering joint R&D





Presentation Index

Transnational Access Activities

FREE Access to 5 CSP Research Infrastructures

Access proposals are selected by an external panel

based on a 3-4 pages proposal

Access duration up to 8 weeks for 3-4 people

Facility operation, travel, and accommodation are

paid by the SFERA2 project

The deadline for this year call is 31st of January 2017
