In the context of Eureka Network projects, international calls aim to create marketable products, processes, or services through international R&D projects involving at least two Eureka member countries (with at least one being an EU member or an Horizon Europe Associated country).

These calls encourage the formation of specialized R&D and innovation consortia led by the private sector, in collaboration with universities and public institutions. The goal is to enhance the technical capacity and knowledge base within the country, facilitate access to international technology expertise and technology transfer for private sector organizations, and foster the development of original technologies. Additionally, it aims to leverage acquired international technological knowledge and experience to drive and guide the development of unique technologies and contribute to the presence of private organizations in international markets.

For information regarding the project budget and duration within the scope of Eureka Network Program National Calls, it is necessary to review the Call Announcement published for the specific call you are targeting.

National applications should be submitted online via the website https://eteydeb.tubitak.gov.tr according to the call schedules specified in the call announcements.
