Find all project proposals on our online matchmaking platform

Only projects that have been openly shared on our  online matchmaking platform by August 7, can apply for project funding in 2024. Here you can also find the ODIN project proposals as well as the methods and resources that members of the ODIN community make available for everyone.

The platform is openly accessible for everyone (for free) on WorldLabs.


ABOUT ODIN

We unite right minds from industry and academia so that they can jointly create need-driven research projects - and pave the way for innovative new treatments in the future. Through competitive funding calls, we fund the best projects ideas. Although companies cannot receive funding, it is free of charge to join.

The 5-year platform is sponsored by the Novo Nordisk Foundation with 180 M DKK from 2024-2028.
