About GCRF
The Global Challenges Research Fund (GCRF) will invest up to £9.3 million in demonstration-stage projects. The projects must have the potential to transform lives in developing countries, through market-creating innovation. We will support projects that address one of ten global societal challenges recognised in the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through the development of innovative processes, products and services.
These projects should lead to the deployment of those innovations within developing countries.
Round 2 of the competition opens on the 2nd March 2020 and closes on the 6th May 2020.
