As we look back on 15 successful years of advising and supporting researchers in Switzerland, we thank all current and former colleagues in the Euresearch network for their great work.

Going forward, we commit to continue to provide a first class information service for all applicants to European research and innovation programmes in Switzerland.

The clear intention of the Swiss Federal Council is the full association of Switzerland to Horizon 2020 from 2017 onward. From now on the respective EU funding for the Swiss partner has to be claimed in all proposals.
