The Einstein Telescope project is supported by the European Commission trough the FP7 programme (GA 211743).

The Grant Agreement foresee a financial support of almost three million of Euro for 38 months, starting from May 2008. The major expenditure is expected to be in additional man power: young scientists are recruited to support with their capabilities and their innovating mind the design of the 3rd generation gravitational wave observatory. Another important fraction of the European support is invested in the networking needs of the collaboration. Travels for joint studies and meetings are supported to the scientists belonging to the eight beneficiaries and to the science team in general.

The ELiTES proposal has been invited by the European Commission to the negotiation phase.

Eight institutes, participating to the ET science team, under the coordination of EGO,have presented at the beginning of 2011 a FP7 proposal titled: "ET-LCGT Interferometric Telescopes Exchange of Scientists" (ELiTES). It has been submitted under the International Research Staff Exchange Scheme (IRSES) programme and it consists in a four years scientists exchange programme between Europe and Japan, focused on cryogenic technology issues for LCGT and ET. The proposal has been evaluated positively by EU and invited to the negotiation phase.
