Also: “visiting scholarships artificial intelligence” (vsai) and special conditions for AI-proposals (Hightech Agenda Bavaria)
The Bavaria California Technology Center (BaCaTeC) promotes the cooperation of research facilities in Bavaria and California in the high-tech areas of life sciences, information and communication technologies, new materials, environmental technology and mechatronics. Preferred subject of sponsoring is the initial funding of new projects, especially those which support the exchange of scientists in reference to the projects.
Financial support may be granted to submitted projects that describe the initiation of lasting cooperation between Bavarian and Californian facilities and which will be supported by other institutions in the future.
The funding line “Joined Public-Private Proposals” supports projects with involved companies as well. Proposals in the research areas of „artificial intelli-gence“ / „digitalization“ the requirement of initiation does not apply, i.e. established cooperation partners in these fields of research can also apply. The initial funding provided by BaCaTeC will mainly cover expenses for travel and accommodations.
The general upper limit of financial support is 10,000 Euro per project.
A new program called „visiting scholarships artificial intelligence“ (vsai) supports the invitation of designated speakers from california. Maximum amount of application (vsai): 3.000 €.
