FUNDING FOR YOUR INNOVATIONS

Win grants and public funding

Co-finance your R&D projects with grants. Use public funding in 3 easy steps:

  • Determine the funding requirements of your projects

  • Find a suitable funding program

  • Write a successful grant application

Determine funding requirements

Let’s talk about your funding project. The funding requirement is determined by the research and development tasks to be performed and the risk of the project.
Depending on the funding program grants from 150,000 euros to approx. 3 million euros are available. For important current tasks such as hydrogen or the decarbonization of industry, amounts in the two to three-digit millions were allocated to projects.

Find a suitable funding program

Our funding cockpit shows the 15 most important national and EU funding programs. This allows you to assess for yourself which program might be the best fit for your innovation. Simply click on the program for more information.

The cockpit has the axes amount of the grant that can be applied for and TRL. TRL stands for Technology Readiness Level. The TRL scale ranges from basic research (TRL 1) to the market-launched product (TRL 9). The size of the circles gives you an impression of the budget of the respective program. Blue ring: EU program, green ring: federal government, red ring: federal state. Here are the Top 15 funding programs as an arranged catalogue.
