Agreements
Comissão Europeia (H2020) Versão em português
Under the collaboration encouraged by FAPESP and the Horizon 2020, researchers based in the State of São Paulo and European researchers will be able to interact in order to develop collaborative research projects taking the best advantage of the opportunities offered in Europe and in São Paulo to access global excellence knowledge, research data and scientific networks. In each case, the amounts to be granted in the research projects selected by FAPESP and by the Horizon 2020 programme will be defined by each agency according to its own procedures. The termination of this cooperation can be decided unilaterally by either party.
