01 · Funding Opportunities
One search. Two ecosystems.
A searchable opportunity environment covering Saudi Arabia, the European Union and relevant international programs. Every opportunity links to an authoritative source and clearly separates public information from Erasmus Middle East’s own analysis.
Filter further by sector, geography, applicant type, deadline, consortium requirement and funding source. On mobile, filters open in a drawer rather than inline.
02 · Register Your Organization
Join the Saudi-European cooperation ecosystem.
Registration is free. Organizations create one reusable BRIDGE Profile that supports discovery, matching and future consortium activity.
Organization types
03 · The BRIDGE Layers
One brand. Five working layers.
BRIDGE is the digital ecosystem of organizations, funding, partners, experts, opportunities and projects. Each layer has a defined job.
Membership
Four tiers. All free through 31 December 2027.
Registration stays free. All four membership levels are offered at no charge during the founding-access period. Future pricing is not published until the commercial model is approved.

The first goal isn’t maximum sign-ups. It’s a credible initial network with enough institutional quality and diversity that partner discovery is actually useful from day one.
