SFI is the largest funder of competitive research in Ireland.
Empowering and inspiring deep public engagement.
We partner with lots of organisations to support and deliver STEM events in Ireland, from large scale scientific conferences to exciting public events such as Science Week.
We believe in the ability of the research we fund to effect positive change in the world.
SFI Research Centres are making important scientific advances, enhancing enterprise and industry, training students with critical, in-demand skills, supporting regional development, and enhancing Ireland’s international reputation.
The 2022 SFI Grant General Terms & Conditions (GT&Cs) apply to all SFI awards. SFI engages in periodic review of its GT&Cs and consults with a broad stakeholder group as part of this process.
