Wide range of research topics
From A to Z – the submitted project proposals cover all kinds of fields of technology. Thematically, the international research projects range from the development of nutritious sweets as well as antimicrobial packaging in the food sector to textile machine engineering regarding the development of lightweight components for automobiles and turbines. Further project proposals are dealing with the improvement of bioenergy production from agri-food solid wastes as well as with efficient energy conversion in the automobile sector.
Four trilateral cooperation projects handed in
Multiple project proposals were, again, submitted in collaboration with research partners from Germany, Flanders, Wallonia, Poland, Austria and Switzerland. Other countries involved in project proposals are Turkey and France. Besides bilateral cooperation projects, four project proposals were handed in, in each of which partners from three countries and regions are involved and joined forces for a project.
Proposals also submitted in cooperation with Brazilian and Japanese research partners
The calls are becoming more and more international. In addition to project proposals rather from the European area, two projects were submitted with partners from Japan as well as three promising projects in cooperation with Brazil. Brazil is one of the more recent CORNET partner countries having joined the network end of 2018 as second country from South America after Peru and, represented by two Funding Organisations, contributing to the network’s dynamic and stability.
