Description
1) Objective
Eurostars is a funding instrument that supports innovative SMEs and project partners (large companies, universities, research organisations and other types of organisations) by funding international collaborative R&D and innovation projects. By participating, organisations from 37 countries can access public funding for international collaborative R&D projects in all fields. They define an innovative SME as any SMEs with the ambition to collaborate on R&D and innovation with international partners to develop new products, processes and services for European and global markets. Innovative SMEs do not need to have a proven track record of R&D activities.
- R&D: “Research and experimental development (R&D) comprise creative and systematic work undertaken in order to increase the stock of knowledge – including knowledge of humankind, culture and society – and to devise new applications of available knowledge.”
- Innovation: “a new or improved product or process (or combination thereof) that differs significantly from the unit’s previous products or processes and that has been made available to potential users (product) or brought into use by the unit (process).”
2) Eligibility
Your project consortium must have an innovative SME in the leading role, but it can also include other types of organisations like large companies, universities, research organisations and more.
3) Location
Actions can take place in EUREKA Member Country or a EUREKA Associated Country. The project consortium must be composed of entities from at least two participating countries, with at least one organisation coming from an EU or Horizon Europe Associated Country.
4) Budget
The amount of Eurostars funding your organisation receives when you participate in a project is managed by your national funding body.
5) Application
You can submit your R&D and innovation project application until 14 September 2023.
