What ARA Provides
ARA offer pathways for international researchers to relocate existing laboratories or build new ones within Europe’s leading universities and research institutes. Participating researchers will gain institutional stability and access to state-of-the-art research infrastructure as well as visibility and impact.
In compliance with host-institution agreements, ARA supports professors, researchers, and research teams seeking relocation through the following services:
Financial Support: Salary-gap compensation aligned with U.S. standards, complementary funding streams, bridging funds, and co-funding support for host institutions.
Valorization of Research: Support for publication, public–private partnerships, startups and spin-offs, technology transfer, and industrial collaboration.
Professional Integration: Technical and operational support via connections to European universities, research institutes, and local academic and industrial ecosystems, and administrative support for grants, subsidies, compliance, and visas.
Relocation & Family Services: Relocation support including housing, schooling, healthcare, immigration processes, and career assistance for spouses and partners.
