Innovation is important for economic growth. Application of IT plays an increasingly important role in this. Several EU countries are one of the most innovative countries in the world, partly thanks to a strong IT sector. To be more competitive, the IT sector has become indispensable. It plays a crucial role in the development of new products and services. Digitalisation, Smart Technlogies and AI are topics in which IT and software development are critical. The challenges that we are facing today in cybersecurity and independence are making sure that governments are investing in IT R&D projects. It’s becoming increasingly complex. Therefore, national governments and the EU are continuously publishing new grant schemes that are of interest to the IT-sector.
Regional and national grant opportunities for innovative IT projects
On a national level, governments in the EU have plenty of grant schemes available for IT projects. The Netherlands (WBSO) and Germany (Forschungszulage) both have a similar grant scheme that lowers the costs for the hours that employees are spending on research and development. The benefit quickly amounts to over € 20,000 per employee per year in the Netherlands. And in Germany the grant offers up to 35% of total R&D-costs. Depending on where your company is located, you will find relevant grant opportunities for IT innovations.
EU grants for the IT sector
The EU helps IT companies with various grant schemes to tackle large-scale IT challenges. The major EU grant schemes for IT are: Digital Europe, CEF Digital, European Defence Fund, Horizon Europe, Horizon Europe Cluster 4, EIC Pathfinder, EIC Accelerator, Marie Curie Actions, EIC Transition, Eurostars, ERC grants and Interreg.
