Co-finance your development projects with funding and grants. Utilize public funds in 3 simple steps:

Determine funding requirements

Let’s talk about your funding project. Public funding is intended to reduce your development risk and make your company future-proof through innovations. The specific funding needs are determined by the research and development tasks to be performed and the project’s risk. Depending on the funding program, grants ranging from 150,000 euros to approximately 3 million euros are available. For important current tasks such as hydrogen or the decarbonization of industry, funding projects have been equipped with two to three-digit million euro amounts.

Find the suitable funding program

The cockpit has the axes of the amount of 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.
