Description
Frontier Grants are designed to facilitate the transition of advanced basic research projects within health sciences or enabling technologies into attractive, financeable, and commercially tangible venture opportunities. The program provides both financial support and interactive mentoring, helping researchers test and develop the translational and commercial potential of their findings. Recipients work closely with Lundbeck Foundation experts to address gaps that currently prevent their projects from becoming viable investment cases. The grant also emphasizes professional development and skill-building for grantees, regardless of the project’s eventual commercial outcome.
