Until now, the Fed4FIRE+ Federation has financially supported nearly 100 experiments from SMEs, industry, academia and research organizations.
The Fed4FIRE+ project continuously builds on this experience and organizes series of Open Calls for experiments and testbeds and by using the Cascade Granting mechanism. During its lifetime of five years, the Fed4FIRE+ project organizes bi-annual open calls for various types of experimentation (large, medium, small) and experimental infrastructures.
In addition to these bi-annual calls, there is also a continuous call with 2-weekly cut-off submission dates for Stage 1. Notification on acceptance of these submission is done within 2 weeks after the cut-off dates. Once successfully completed, these SMEs are eligible for a Stage 2 proposal. These Stage 2 submissions run in parallel with the bi-annual calls and a new window has just been opened

The coming cut-off dates / submission deadlines are, always at 17:00 CET (Brussels local time).
