Defence technologies call focusing on Space and Lightweight Materials
08 June 2022
A new funding opportunity to companies and research organisations looking to develop dual-use defence solutions (products, services and systems) on the topics of Space and Lightweight Materials.
The Directorate of Defence of the Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs, the Ministry of the Economy, the National Research Fund and Luxinnovation offer a new funding opportunity to companies and research organisations looking to develop dual-use defence technologies (products, services and systems). The 2022 Joint defence call Edition will focus on Space and Materials.
The joint defence call launched on 3 June 2022 provides financial incentives to applicants who want to demonstrate the relevance of their research results, materials, technologies, products and/or solutions as well as their potential benefit for defence applications. This initiative is based on the Luxembourg Government’s ambition to support the Luxembourg industry in getting access to the defence market. While both individual and collaborative projects proposals are possible, cooperation between companies and research organisations is encouraged.
The objective of this call is to support individual and collaborative R&D projects leading to advances in joint areas of defence, civilian research, and industry, in the following domains:
- Satellite communication, Earth Observation and Reconnaissance, Space Situational Awareness (SSA) and space operations, Data processing
- Lightweight structures and composite materials
