Applications under the Perspectief scheme are assessed on the basis of three criteria: technological development, scientific quality and societal impact. The criterion of technological development relates, amongst other things, to the degree of technological innovation and the (further) development of one or more key technologies. The 2026–2027 Perspectief round will be open to research projects that contribute to the Knowledge and Innovation Agendas (KIAs) and focus on key technologies and digitalisation.
As funding for the programme has been withdrawn, this will be the final round of Perspectief.
For who
NWO’s ‘Perspectief’ call is intended for consortia in which research organisations and the business sector collaborate.
