The SDSC launches 2nd National Calls for Collaborative Projects starting in 2026
In line with its mission to advance data science and artificial intelligence (AI) in research, industry, and the public sector across Switzerland, the Swiss Data Science Center (SDSC) continues to issue National Calls for collaborative projects on an annual basis.
In 2025, as the SDSC evolves into a National Research Infrastructure, the calls program foresees three distinct nationwide Calls for Collaborative Projects:
· The 2025 Call for Collaborative Research Data Science Projects
· The 2025 Call for End-User Innovation Projects
· The 2025 Call for Collaborative Data Science Infrastructure Projects
