Grants for the High Tech Industry
In order to address the EU challenges and stimulate cutting-edge research and development projects, the EU and national governments want to invest in innovations on a regional, national and international level and thereby enhance the impact High Tech Industry can have. To support this endeavor as well as your innovation project, the EU have made many different grants available. Horizon Europe, Interreg, EIC Accelerator, EIC Pathfinder, Digital Europe and Eurostars are examples of grant schemes intended for different topics. Furthermore, the cross-sectoral character of High Tech offers the opportunity to apply for grants within specific industries. Clean Aviation, for example, is specifically intended for projects for developing clean technologies in the aviation sector.
Grants for sustainability innovations
High Tech innovations are supporting the acceleration of the transition to a sustainable and circular economy. Several innovation areas within the High Tech Industry are focused on circularity and sustainability. This offers additional grant opportunities from the EU, for example CEF Energy, Innovation Fund, LIFE Programme, Horizon Europe Cluster 5 and many more specific grant schemes for relevant topics.
