Good news!
Now invest more instead of cutting, on both sides!
(Of course I have a conflict of interest being a scientist 😉)

Switzerland is joining Horizon Europe!
We are uniting two research powerhouses.
For cutting-edge innovation that will boost our energy security, digital transformation, health and so much more.
Today is a good day for science, and for our EU-Switzerland partnership.

Possibly we raise more questions than we answer, but it has been inspiring.
Hopefully we’ll come up with the theory shortly… it is in the works.
