Bilateralt fond (2,05 millioner euro)
'It is not only Norwegian companies and research institutions that can enter into cooperation projects. 
– Det er ikke bare norsk næringsliv og forskningsinstitusjoner som kan inngå i samarbeidsprosjekter.

Her ligger det store muligheter for blant annet kommuner, frivillige organisasjoner og kultursektoren.
Anyone who would like to take part in creating a green, competitive and inclusive Europe is welcome to participate', Mr Bakke-Jensen said. 
Alle som vil være med å skape et grønt, konkurransedyktig og inkluderende Europa er velkomne til å delta, sier Bakke-Jensen.
Over the next few months, these Norwegian agencies will work with their Portuguese counterparts to develop the programmes. 
I månedene fremover skal de norske fagetatene samarbeide med portugisiske kolleger om å utvikle programmene.
Open calls for project proposals will be announced at a later stage.
