Ulysseus Joint R&I Groups

Ulysseus Seed Funding Programme for Joint Research and Innovation Groups aims to strengthens research and innovation activities within Ulysseus European University by enabling the creation and enhancement of Joint R&I Groups and thus supporting individual researchers and teams from Ulysseus partner universities, joined by experts and innovators from associated partners and other stakeholders.

The formation of R&I Groups will contribute to fostering scientific communication, stimulating the creation of research and innovation ideas, promoting individual research knowledge bases, and supporting follow-up activities that could lead to new project proposals from funding sources such as Horizon Europe, Erasmus+, or other international and national programs, and fostering innovation-driven territorial transformation.

All these activities can facilitate the exchange and inter-sectoral mobility of researchers and innovators at all levels, allowing them to share experiences, knowledge effectively.

The Programme activities are funded from the Ulysseus budget and are chronologically structured in the seed funding calls which will be gradually published, evaluated and implemented.

In the first call (published in April 2025) more than 40 Joint R&I Groups applied for seed funding support, with the participation of more than 320 researchers from Ulysseus partner universities as well as Ulysseus Associated Partners.
