TÜBİTAK Science Fairs Support Programme has been launched and the first call was published in 2013. This program aims to accelerate the dissemination of scientific culture therefore supports the secondary and high schools to organize Science Fairs in their schools.  The Ministry of National Education and TÜBİTAK signed a protocol in 2015 for activities to promote the development of the science culture of students at secondary and high schools. The main purpose of this programme is to raise awareness about research techniques, reporting, and presentation skills among 5th-12th grade students, and to encourage them to carry out scientific studies and contribute to the development of their scientific approach skills.

The approved amount of expenses of Project Brokerage Events are paid by TUBITAK to the special bank account of the organization which is specified in the application form. A separate bank account must be opened for the event.

In the scope of the supported event, all payments related to the expenses that are found eligible to support must be completed most lately within one month after the end of the event.

Within one month after the end of the event, Project Brokerage Events Event Report (AGY354) and Final Account Form must be prepared by the authority responsible from the event and submitted to TUBITAK by the organization official. Event outputs such as reports, publishing and so on should not be sent in the attachment of the Event Report form.

Legal Structure of Funds

Within the scope of the program the legal structure of the Venture Capital Funds may be any of the following:

• Venture Capital Investment Funds or Venture Capital Investment Company subject to the legislation of the Capital Markets Board of Turkey
• Funds that can invest in ventures resident in Turkey established within the framework of the relevant country legislation (except for countries covered by the black list announced by the Organization for Economic Development and Cooperation (OECD)).

Features of Funds

• Funds will invest in early stage technology-based ventures in Turkey
• University research, spin-off and start-up investments as well as the commercialization of R & D activities and innovation will be financed.
• General Partner (GP) must participate at least 1% of the fund.
• More than 20% of the fund size should not be invested in a single venture company or group company.
• Technology Development Zones (TDZs), Technology Transfer Offices (TTOs) and Research Infrastructures (RIs), the Ministry of Treasury and Finance and third party investors (commercial banks, investment banks, pension funds, angel investors, private investors, private corporations, public institutions and other foreign institutions like EIF, EBRD, IFC, FMO) will participate as limited partners
• Funds will be managed and decided independently

Features of the Early Stage Technology Based Initiatives

SME-scale companies located in Türkiye that meet both conditions stated below are defined as early stage technology-based enterprises.

a) As of the date when the fund first invested in the venture, companies of SME scale whose maximum 10 calendar years have passed through the establishment date

b) SME scale companies that have received R&D and innovation project support from the public institutions and organizations specified in the Tech-InvesTR call as of the date of the submission of the term report and have successfully completed this project or whose project support continues

TÜBİTAK will support 50% of TTO/TDZ/RI's contributions to VC funds in the form of grants for investments to be made in these companies residing in Türkiye and having the above characteristics.

Conditions of Grant

The grant support to be provided by TÜBİTAK has two conditions, namely capital accumulation condition and experience accumulation condition.

1. Capital Accumulation Condition: After the fund’s exit from the investments, TUBITAK grants will be accumulated in TTO, TDZ, RIs and will be used in the funding of early stage technology-based initiatives.
2. Experience Accumulation Condition: It is aimed to transfer experience from Funds to TTO, TDZ, RIs. At least one representative from TTO, TDZ, RIs will be involved in at least 3 due diligence studies each year, and they will get experience on company valuation, legal transactions, commercialization etc. about fund management. These experiences are expected to be transferred to the ecosystem.

Exit Strategy Report

The amount to be obtained from the investments will be distributed in accordance with the agreement signed between all investors including TTO, TDZ, RIs and the fund manager. The amount corresponding to the TÜBİTAK grant will be kept in the special account.

TTO, TDZ, RIs will submit an Exit Strategy Report containing the future strategy on the corresponding amount of TUBITAK grant from the amount to be obtained from the Fund. Exit Strategy Report must be submitted within six months after the end of the Fund’s investment cycle.

With the approval of the exit strategy report by TUBITAK, the amount in the special account will be suitable for the use of TTO, TDZ, RIs. The project will be accepted as completed and the support process will be terminated.

The main objective of the 2026 OH-TREAT Call, opened under Horizon Europe’s One Health Antimicrobial Resistance (OHAMR) Partnership, is to increase treatment success rates in humans, animals, and plants affected by bacterial or fungal infections by providing new therapeutic options while simultaneously reducing the risk of antimicrobial resistance within diverse One Health settings.

Research and innovation proposals submitted to the EUP OHAMR 2026 OH-TREAT Call must address one of the following topics:

Topic 1: Development of new combination treatments using existing or innovative antimicrobials and/or adjunctive therapies.

Topic 2: Development of tools and methods to improve adherence to treatment protocols.

Topic 3: Assessment of the impact of veterinary and agricultural antimicrobial use on AMR transmission to humans and the environment, supporting policy decisions on restricting certain antimicrobials for human-only use.

International project proposals must strictly comply with the call requirements. A project consortium must consist of at least three partners requesting funding from three different countries participating in the call. Each partner will receive support from their respective national funding agency.

Further information on the call is available under the call section of the OHAMR main webpage. Additionally, the webinar scheduled for 26 November 2025 can also be accessed via the same page.

In addition to the international proposal submitted to the Call Secretariat, Turkish researchers participating in OH-TREAT projects are required to submit a national proposal to TÜBİTAK. Project proposals from Türkiye will be supported under the TÜBİTAK 1071 Support Programme. Applicants must carefully review the national requirements.
