Funding opportunities


PLANT2FOOD FUNDS OPEN PROJECTS WITH THE FOOD SECTOR


Projects with main applicants from the partnering universities can apply for funding through Plant2Food. Due to the rules and regulations of the Novo Nordisk Foundation, which funds the Plant2Food platform, the grant cannot be allocated to for-profit organisations. This means that private companies cannot be beneficiaries of our grants, but they can participate in both our community and projects without requirements for membership fees or cash contributions.

Research topics and call guidelines will be announced in Q1 of 2023.
