How to Secure Support for Your Project from the Forschungsfonds Aargau

To qualify for cantonal funding, projects must meet specific criteria and guidelines. Each project must involve a business partner based in the canton of Aargau or include a binding commitment to relocate the headquarters to Aargau, as well as involve a Swiss university partner (e.g., ETH/Uni, EMPA, PSI, FH).

Typically, the project is led by the business and implementation partner, while the university serves as the research partner, contributing its expertise. This collaboration fosters valuable knowledge transfer between industry and research, thereby reducing the risks for the participating company.
