Welcome to the Leibniz Europe Office wiki!

Here you will find everything you need to know about our role as a liaison office between the Leibniz Association, the European institutions and the European scientific community. In Brussels, we closely follow developments in research policy, actively represent the interests of the Leibniz Association, and provide support for strategic projects and positioning in the European Research Area.

Our services for Leibniz institutions range from advising on EU funding programmes such as Horizon Europe and providing individual support with proposals, to establishing contacts with decision-makers and organising events and workshops.

Whether you need policy statements, targeted networking opportunities or exclusive information on research funding, we connect you with Europe.

Please feel free to contact us: we look forward to hearing from you!
