Support Program Categories
01
R&D and Technology Development Support
TÜBİTAK supports companies that are developing new products, improving the performance of existing products, or creating advanced engineering solutions with a holistic financing structure that spans the R&D process from idea to prototype and from prototype to commercialization. Within this scope, the 1501 Industrial R&D Projects, 1507 SME R&D Startup, 1511 Priority Areas Technology Development, and 1711 Artificial Intelligence Ecosystem Calls stand out. These programs strengthen the company's R&D culture, increase technical capacity, and ensure that innovative products enter the market in a competitive manner.
02
University–Industry Cooperation and Ecosystem Supports
TÜBİTAK encourages companies to collaborate with academic knowledge, laboratory infrastructure, and expert research ecosystems. Through programs such as the 1505 University-Industry Cooperation Program, 1513 Technology Transfer Offices, and 1515 Pioneer R&D Laboratories, businesses gain faster access to new technologies and increase their capacity to produce patents and know-how. This approach means not only generating projects but also building long-term R&D capabilities.
03
International Collaborative R&D and Innovation Programs
TÜBİTAK offers collaborative project development opportunities with international consortia for companies looking to develop solutions that will compete in global markets. The 1509 International Industrial R&D Support Program, Eureka/Eurostars calls, and Horizon Europe projects provide companies not only with grants but also with international collaboration, R&D partnerships, and global commercialization opportunities. These programs take the company out of local competition and into the international innovation ecosystem.
