The Foundation is an independent organisation and its main objectives include: The design, launching and monitoring of National Research and Innovation Funding Programmes and also the promotion of the participation of Cypriot entities and researchers in European Research and Innovation Programmes. The RPF has the overall responsibility for the coordination of activities relating to the Horizon 2020. The RPF is the Coordinator of the Cyprus Business Support Centre (BSC-Cy) and responsible for the implementation of the innovation, technology and knowledge transfer activities and provides information and support for the participation of BSC-Cy clients in the national and european research and innovation programmes.
The general objective of the project is to contribute to smart growth in the European Union and specifically in Cyprus by contributing to a better and more efficient connection of participants along the innovation chain.
