DESCRIPTION:The Gebert Rüf Stiftung (GRS) supports pre-competitive\, appl
 ied research (at Swiss institutions of higher education) that seems too ap
 plication-oriented for institutions of higher learning\, and too far from 
 the market for institutions that promote the transfer from research to app
 lication. GRS does NOT support purely fundamental research projects\, the 
 optimization of the already known\, business-oriented start-up projects\, 
 projects that have already commenced or isolated projects with little syne
 rgistic impact.\nGRS programmes\n\n	is aimed at interdisciplinary project 
 groups in the fields of science\, technology and education\, conducting ap
 plication-oriented R&D and educational projects in which design – from c
 onception to implementation – is central and not merely an add-on. Desig
 n theory and disciplinary basic design research are NOT supported. Both sm
 all projects (short duration\, up to CHF 50\,000) and larger projects (2-3
  years\, up to CHF 300\,000) are considered.\n	Pilot Projects provides sta
 rt-up or initial funding for projects of nationwide importance\, which sta
 nd out as particularly original\, innovative\, surprising or promising\, w
 ith major potential and suitable to serve as a model. For an indication of
  the grant duration and funding\, follow this link.\n	is for interdiscipli
 nary teams working on projects that address the need for a low-threshold w
 ay of communicating about education\, research and innovation\, combining 
 entertainment with the transfer of knowledge. It promotes the development 
 of new forms of science dialogue in collaboration with representatives of 
 non-scientific target groups in Switzerland. Marketing campaigns\, institu
 tional PR work and science communication are NOT supported. An indication 
 of grants duration and funding can be found at this link.\n\nDeadlines\n\n
