LIT Calls.

In an effort to support cutting-edge research, LIT announces bi-annual "Calls for Proposals". Projects may be submitted in various categories.

There are also special calls featuring exclusive targets and objectives.

Currently Open Calls for Proposals:

 

Special LIT Ars Electronica Call 2024

More information about this call is available at: LIT-ARS Sonder-Call 2024 | LIT Open Innovation Center (jku.at)

13th Call For Proposals.

The submission deadline is April 29, 2024

The call is open to all fields in academia, science, and technology. The LIT Call is open to all areas of science and technology.
