Who we are?

We are a collective of research scientists, spanning diverse disciplines, dedicated to catalyzing and nurturing equitable research opportunities for independent researchers in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. Our strategy is geared toward fostering a knowledge-driven, diverse, and sustainable digital society that aligns with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals.

Our core focus areas revolve around promoting research excellence, fortifying partnerships between academia and industry, and attracting and retaining exceptional research talent.

Our establishment as a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting research endeavors seeks to collaborate and enhance existing efforts. The emergence of a new, decentralized, and autonomous organization is motivated by several compelling factors:

  1. Addressing gaps: Existing nonprofit entities may not cover all scientific research domains, leaving gaps in research support. Our organization strives to bridge these gaps and offer comprehensive research support.
  2. Collaboration: Our initiative fosters collaboration and communication among existing organizations, mitigating prior organizational or administrative barriers.
  3. Streamlining Processes: By standardizing procedures and requirements, our organization offers a centralized platform for researchers, simplifying access to support and resources.
  4. Innovation: We bring fresh perspectives and innovative approaches to scientific research support, enhancing outcomes and impact.
  5. Scaling support: Existing entities might face limitations in resources or capacity to assist all researchers or projects. Our organization aims to provide additional support to those that might otherwise be underserved.
  6. Talent retention: By fostering collaborative research projects and streamlining research support, we aim to make Luxembourg an appealing destination for researchers, retaining the pivotal individuals vital to the scientific community’s growth and success.
