In the Intelligent Development programme alone, we had nearly EUR 3.5 billion available to finance research work. This money is mainly for small and medium enterprises, which have interesting projects and will convince experts that it will be worth using them.

EU grants to companies

All available EU programmes give us precise information on what conditions must be met in order to be able to benefit from a given programme and the finances offered to us. As far as current projects are concerned, there are many of those supporting entrepreneurs, which are supposed to influence the fact that they will invest in industrial research and development works. It is under these slogans that the issues that aim to improve the offer of a given company are placed.

European Funds

If the entrepreneur wants to benefit from the funds, he has to apply for the fulfilment of certain criteria, which are prepared for each available programme. His idea for development must be based on an innovative concept of creating a new or modernised product. The expectations are that the company will strive for development and it is precisely for this development that the EU funds are to be obtained from the EU. This idea, which will be presented, will have to be properly shaped.

The very scope of work or research that is to be carried out practically can be arbitrary and everyone can concretise it. One limitation will be national smart specialisations. The entrepreneur must act in such a situation in the areas covered by them. Then it will indeed be possible to say that these funds will be used.

EU funding

All companies can apply for grants, but you have to remember that there are different deadlines for the specific measures that you will be able to obtain. The call for proposals is open at different dates and will have to be adapted accordingly. However, there are also fast paths which can be more simply applied for the adoption and evaluation of the proposal. As a result, the process of applying for grants can be expected to be somewhat easier to carry out.

EU projects

It should be stressed that the available EU research and development projects currently offer the possibility of withdrawing from the project and this will not involve a breach of the funding agreement. Therefore, it does not threaten to impose regulatory sanctions. Therefore, the point is to treat this measure in such a way that not all implemented projects will end in success and it should not surprise anyone. Companies interested in applying for such financial support will have to get to know all the available detailed conditions, on the basis of which it is really possible to prepare a successful application.
