KIC Long-term programmes 2024

NWO invites researchers and partners to organise consortia that will set out to do innovative research and develop solutions for societal issues, while realising economic potential, to submit an application for a long-term programme. Long-term programmes aim towards impact throughout the course of the programme, as well as lasting beyond the funding period.

Purpose

By funding the research projects that are the scientific foundation of the long-term programmes, NWO facilitates the development of strategic consortia consisting of researchers, public and private partners, that will set out or continue their collaboration throughout this ten-year programme. Tne ten-year collaboration within the long-term programme is the starting point of a long-term, forceful and sustainable stimulus of innovation and the national development of a scientific field in the Netherlands. A long-term programme is initiated with the aim and structure to continue after the initial funding of this LTP.

Who can apply

Proposals are submitted by the main applicant and two or more co-applicants. Full, associate and assistant professors, lectors and other researchers with similar positions may act as main or co-applicants if they have a tenured position (and therefore have a paid employment contract for an indefinite period of time) or have a tenure track agreement. A proposal  is written by a consortium in which besides the applicants co-funders are involved as well.

Participation of research organisations is maximised, research organisations are allowed to apply as main applicant twice.

More details on who can apply and additional conditions for eligibility can be found in the call for proposals.

What to apply for

For this call for proposals, a consortium can apply for a minimum of €9.000.000 and a maximum of €25.000.000 of NWO funding. NWO funds a maximum of 30% of the total LTP budget. The other 70% is contributed in joint funding by the consortium partners.

  • When to apply
  • The deadline for submission of an (obligatory) initiative is 15 April 2025, 14:00 hours.
  • The deadline for submission of an application is 14 October 2025, 14:00 hours.
