General differences
No requirement for applicants from multiple organisations
The foundation encourages Swedish-Norwegian applications but does not require applicants from multiple organisations.
Norwegian kronor and Norwegian as application language
For Swedish-Norwegian applications ”Swedish” and ”SEK” is to be understood as ”Swedish or Norwegian” and ”SEK or NOK”. This is also apparent in the application system. Special instructions apply for Norwegian funding, there is information about this in the application system as well.
