In response to the result of the vote on mass immigration held on 9 February 2014, the European Commission had suspended negotiations on Switzerland’s association to the Horizon 2020 package and Switzerland now has the status of a third country.
This implied some severe restrictions and limitations for Swiss participations in Horizon 2020. The Federal Administration informed on 12 September 2014 that an agreement was found for a so-called partial association of Switzerland to Horizon 2020.
