A new network of European universities is banding together to influence policy behind the next EU research programme, set to begin in 2021.
The Guild of European Research Intensive Universities brings together universities with the aim of collaborating on "innovative solutions to some of Europe’s most intractable scientific and social challenges". The Guild is planning to get up to 20 universities before the official launch and hopes to continue expanding. The founding members have already approached universities in Central and Eastern Europe, in the Baltics, and in Portugal and Spain.
