The Austrian Research Promotion Agency (FFG) is the national funding agency for industrial research and development in Austria. Research, development and innovation are central drivers for economic, technological and social development. Businesses that undertake research grow faster, achieve higher export rates and create more employment than those who don’t. The FFG applies a wide variety of measures to support structural change in Austria. FFG funding schemes play an important role in generating new knowledge, developing new products and services, and enhancing competitiveness in the global marketplace. They make it easier, or possible, to finance research and innovation projects, and help to absorb the risks involved in research. The FFG supports international networking and encourages careers in science. FFG can help you tap into your innovative potential and exploit new market opportunities by putting new knowledge to work.

Über mich

I am Elisabeth Thompson, Mission Manager for Soil at the Austrian Research Promotion Agency (FFG), where I lead the national implementation of the EU Mission “A Soil Deal for Europe” and coordinate Austria’s Science–Policy Hub for Healthy Soils. My work focuses on building strong interfaces between research, public administration, and practice, ensuring that scientific evidence effectively informs soil‑related policy and governance. I manage Austria’s Mission Action Group “Healthy Soils,” a 135‑member community spanning ministries, federal provinces, research institutions, and key stakeholders, and I foster close collaboration with partners in Switzerland, Bavaria, Czechia, and Slovenia. My mission is to accelerate the transition toward healthy soils by 2030 through strategic coordination, knowledge mobilisation, and cross‑border cooperation.
