Research Funders

Research funders are organizations, agencies, or institutions that provide financial support to researchers or projects to advance knowledge in specific fields. They invest resources to help scientists, universities, or companies carry out studies, experiments, or innovations. These funders may be government bodies, private foundations, or industry groups, and their funding enables researchers to access necessary tools, facilities, and personnel. In return, funders often seek results that align with their priorities, such as scientific discovery, technological development, or societal benefit. Essentially, research funders enable and sustain the process of inquiry and innovation.
