FFG – Austrian Research Promotion Agency

The Austrian Research Promotion Agency (FFG) is the national funding agency for industrial research and development in Austria.

The FFG offers a comprehensive spectrum of services for Austrian enterprises, research institutions and researchers, ranging from the management of public funding programmes to consulting services in all phases of technology development and innovation, from support for integration into European research programmes and networks to the promotion of Austria’s interests at the European and the international level.
The FFG is an important partner for life sciences in Austria, supporting universities, non-university research institutes and companies. Every year, an average of between ten and fifteen percent of FFG funding is spent on projects in this field. Relevant European and international programmes include in particular the EU Framework Programme (currently Horizon Europe) and the spectrum of European Partnerships (e.g. Joint Technology Initiatives).
