Find local R&D and innovation project partners

The best innovative ideas are rarely born in isolation but are in most cases the result of a cross-fertilisation of skills, backgrounds, disciplines and experiences. Benefitting from our extensive networks and in-depth knowledge of the Luxembourg research and innovation landscape, we are there to help you find the R&D and innovation project partners that best match your needs. We can connect you with companies and research centres in Luxembourg.

The types of R&D and innovation projects that can be implemented together with partners are many and varied. Some examples include:

• The Ministry of the Economy provides financial support for industrial research and experimental development. Projects carried out in effective collaboration with partners can receive additional funding.
• The Ministry of the Economy, the Luxembourg National Research Fund and Luxinnovation regularly organise joint calls for projects in thematic areas aimed at co-developing and validating new solutions together with partners.
• The Ministry of the Economy offers financial support to legal entities to build, modernise or manage innovation clusters: structures or groups composed of independent parties such as startups, companies, research institutes, associations, etc.
• The European initiatives EUREKA and IraSME help you conduct your R&D projects with partners in other countries, each receiving funding from their own country.

We can:

• connect you with Luxembourg companies and research centres, in particular – but not only – in key ecosystems 
• active our relationships with colleagues in the surrounding Greater Region who can recommend potential partners in their regions
• help you find partners that you can team up with to apply for project funding from European projects such as Horizon Europe
• advise you on what type of funding measure would be most suitable for the project you have in mind

We can support companies and research organisations looking for innovation project partners.
