The Association of ERC Grantees (AERG) is also backing the network, in addition to the ERC.

As ambassador for ERC, Pauliina will among other things inform about the importance of leading-edge research to decision-makers, the media, and other actors. She will also act as support to Sweden’s national contact person (NCP), Anethe Mansén, in her work on increasing knowledge about the ERC and about funding opportunities for researchers in Sweden.
