Bluepharma/University of Coimbra Innovation Award

The Bluepharma | University of Coimbra Innovation Award is attributed every 2 years to an innovative research project in the health area. All research labs, institutes and organizations that host innovative research projects involving Portuguese researchers may apply.

These projects may be carried out by groups of more than one institution, but the research work must have been partially or totally conducted in Portuguese institutions, by Portuguese and/or foreign researchers.

The Bluepharma/University of Coimbra Award consists of a money prize up to €20.000 to fund a proof of concept project, and a diploma. Following the proof of concept, if the promoters are interested in the creation of a spin-off company based on the project, Bluepharma may invest up to € 30.000, depending on the project’s merit and market viability.

The award is open for applications between September 1st and October 31st 2013.
