About EIRC

Euro India Research Center (EIRC) brings with it more than 15 years of experience and partnerships with European and Indian industries and research players, in cross sectoral industrial and technological sectors.

Since its inception, EIRC facilitated collaborations between Europe and India for conducting Research and Technology Development (RTD) under the European Commission’s largest funding Programme – Framework Programme 7 (FP7). EIRC functioned as the Operational Arm of the Indian ICT National Contact Point (NCP) for the FP7 ICT Programme, the Ministry of Information and Communications Technology, GOI, and supported the Indian organizations through:

  • Timely information dissemination and training on the Framework Programme
  • Advising on legal and financial issues, proposal writing and submission
  • Disseminating and assisting partner searches to Indian organizations and vice versa.

Currently, EIRC is a one-stop-shop entity for facilitating business and research cooperation and collaborations between EU and India. EIRC facilitates new partnerships and catalyses budding collaborations broadly between businesses, industries, academia and research establishments both in India and Europe. EIRC with its huge past experience in FP7 will continue to support research activities and connects them to industry as per their need.
