Germany

ELFI is a German language service for research funding information. While public funding has been cut short and competition has grown, higher education institutions in Germany need to acquire external funding. In many cases, the quality of research is assessed by scientists' ability to tap external funding sources, hence they are in need of information regarding funding organisations, enterprises, ministries and other schemes. The ELFI database provides current data by regular searches of relevant websites and other documents. Access to the database is subject to subscription, but students are granted a free account.
