A decision has been adopted on providing domestic funding to projects implemented in Hungarian–Austrian cooperation in the framework of international science and technology (S&T) cooperation calls. The calls are financed from the National Development, Research and Innovation Fund with the aim to promote the mobility of participants of research projects implemented in bilateral S&T cooperation in the given relation and to facilitate larger project-based cooperations.

14 proposals were submitted in time to the TÉT_17_AT call, and 9 of them were found to be in line with the formal requirements and suitable for qualitative assessment. The proposals were assessed and ranked by a designated expert group. On recommendation of the international joint committee, the Innovation Board selected all proposals for funding. Accordingly, 9 projects from 5 universities, 1 HAS research centre and 2 other institutions received altogether nearly HUF 14 million in non-refundable funding from the NRDI Fund.
