Opportunities for scientific and technological cooperation
The General Directorate for the Promotion of the Country System, through the Central Directorate for Innovation and Research, deals with the negotiation and signature of bilateral Executive Programmes/Protocols for scientific and technological cooperation. The Executive Protocols are the direct application of specific bilateral agreements for scientific and technological cooperation and are valid for many years.
The Executive Protocols specify the research areas in which bilateral cooperation between Italy and the partner country is concentrated: on the basis of these research areas a specific call for proposals is issued to select research projects that can be financed by both countries. There are two types of research projects:
