
Signed on 30 November 2009

will enhance the EU Japan collaboration in
Science and Technology

Regular Joint Steering Committee meetings

Priority setting
The EU’s S&T Funding instrument

Has been created to better connect the S&T landscapes of
the 27 Member States

It is the EU Research Framework Programme (FP)
 now FP7

It is open for the participation of all countries

Therefore
– if you or your institute are located in Japan you can
participate
– The Framework Programme is the most substantial
and open research funding instrument we know


it is very attractive for ambitious researchers from all
over the world .
