Funding Institutional is an online tool promoted by Elsevier that allows professors, researchers and PhD students to identify new international funding opportunities compatible with their career and research interests.

Developed for researchers and, more generally, for anyone interested in researching and selecting external competitive calls, Funding Institutional is an important guide to the vast and varied landscape of international funding, offering detailed information on funding calls, funding bodies and grants awarded, using a database drawn from a wide range of public and private sources.

Here a few examples of services offered by Funding Institutional:
