BRIDGE Discovery call for projects
The BRIDGE Discovery call for projects is aimed at experienced researchers who wish to develop an innovation resulting from their research work, whether fundamental or applied. This programme provides financial support to develop the scientific basis needed for the implementation of innovative projects, in particular during the critical phase before they are commercialised, thereby advancing their scientific and technological vision.

BRIDGE is a joint initiative between Innosuisse and the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF). The programme makes two support offers available to researchers in Switzerland.
