Call for proposals TECNIOSPRING Programme opened until 18th July

TECNIOSPRING is a new fellowship programme that provides financial support to individual mobility proposals presented by experienced researchers in liaison with a TECNIO centre. The programme will offer fellows 2-year employment contracts, with the corresponding social security provisions.

Experienced researchers are expected to develop an applied research project with focus on technology transfer. With the aim of reinforcing the personal career development plan of the experienced researcher, the programme will include complementary technology transfer training activities.

TECNIOSPRING fellowship programme is co-financed by the European Union through the Marie Curie Actions “Co-funding of regional, national and international programmes (COFUND)”. Therefore successful candidates will be Marie Curie fellows as well as TECNIOSPRING fellows.

The programme offers two different fellowships:
• OUTGOING + RETURN: mobility outside Spain for researchers of any nationality that reside in Catalonia willing to join a research or technology centre or R&D department of a private company for one year. This scheme will include a return phase of one more year to a TECNIO centre.
• INCOMING: mobility for experienced researchers of any nationality willing to join a TECNIO centre for 2 years.
