Helpdesk

The KORRIDOR helpdesk provides information about the access opportunities for Korean government-funded international cooperation R&D programs to potential European participants and potential multipliers so as to effectively facilitate participation of European researchers in Korean R&D programs. The helpdesk is set up in KIST Europe and the services include fast and free consulting and advising services on access opportunities, legal, organizational, financial and cultural issues and available supporting mechanisms. We also constantly update the FAQ and participation guidelines for Korean R&D programs.
