EIC has launched its first calls
EIC has been launched in April and there are several open calls. EIC will support through an “Integrated, agile support across the full innovation spectrum from early-stage research to start-up and scale-up”.
The funding and support are organised into three main funding schemes:
- EIC Pathfinder for advanced research to develop the scientific basis to underpin breakthrough technologies.
- EIC Transition to validate technologies and develop business plans for specific applications
- EIC Accelerator to support companies (SMEs, start-ups, spin-outs, and in exceptional cases small mid-caps) to bring their innovations to market and scale-up.
Linkages between these funding schemes will be maximised through proactive management and new approaches, such as additional grants to ongoing Pathfinder projects, a Marketplace to connect preliminary and final research results with entrepreneurs and investors, and the Fast Track scheme from Pathfinder and Transition to enter the Accelerator.
