FOTONIKA- LV Unlocking and Boosting Research Potential for Photonics in Latvia – Towards Effective Integration in the European Research Area
Coordinator: LATVIJAS UNIVERSITATE (LV)
The project aims at unlocking and boosting Latvian R&D potential for photonics at the University of Latvia (LU) with activitiescontributing to the realization of the full research potential on national scale for the enlarged Union and vision of InnovativeUnion 2020. Direct beneficiary of the project - the Association FOTONIKA-LV at LU having about 100 researchers: including4 Professors, 28 with PhD degrees, 7 skilled technicians, 34 PhD candidates and MSc level students. Enhancement ofresearch and outreach activities will covers basic and applied sciences of photonics domain: optics, optoelec…
About Seventh Framework Programme (2007–2013)
The Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) ran from 2007 to 2013 and was the EU's main research-funding instrument of that period. It mobilised roughly €50 billion across cooperation projects, ERC frontier grants, Marie Curie fellowships, capacity-building actions and Euratom research. FP7 closed to new calls in 2013 but its projects continued for years after under their original grant agreements.
Co-funding: the European Union contributes €3.8M toward a total project budget of €4.2M — a funding rate of 89%, with the remainder covered by the consortium partners. The project runs over approximately 3.5 years from 2012-02-01 to 2015-07-31.
