Even though the scientific committee of the Hasler Foundation has cancelled the standard projects per October 2016, in exceptional cases it will remain possible to submit proposals for research projects exceeding the sum of CHF 50’000.00. Please contact our office prior to submitting your application.
We expect a project abstract, an estimate of the total funds required and any further documents you deem essential to be sent to contact (at) haslerstiftung.ch
Standard projects supplement the support for research available from the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNF; pure research) and the Swiss Innovation Agency (Innosuisse; applied research) in those cases where, although they meet the quality standard criteria of the support organisations, projects don’t fall within their spectrum of support, either for formal or other reasons.
Applications that have already been submitted to the SNF or Innosuisse in an identical or similar form may, irrespective of the rulings made by these bodies, no longer be submitted to the Hasler Foundation. Every application must be substantiated, for which reason it cannot be submitted to SNF or Innosuisse.
Submission of proposals
Standard proposals for research projects must be written in English. For their submission the official form of the Hasler Foundation is mandatory:
