Our FAQs

  • A digitalisation funding is a public grant or subsidised loan that supports companies in implementing technological projects. These projects may include software development, automation, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure, ERP systems, or digital business models. Funding can be provided at regional, national, or EU level.

  • In most cases, small and medium sized enterprises, startups, and sometimes large corporations can apply for public funding. Eligibility depends on the specific funding programme, company size, project scope, and country. Many programmes are specifically designed for SMEs.

  • Typical funding rates range between 30 and 70 percent of eligible project costs. In certain innovation or research programmes, the funding rate can be higher. The exact percentage depends on the country, type of project, and company size.

  • Public grants generally do not need to be repaid if all funding conditions are fulfilled. However, subsidised loans must be repaid under agreed terms. It is important to distinguish between non repayable grants and repayable financial instruments.

  • Projects related to automation, artificial intelligence, Industry 4.0, ERP implementation, cybersecurity, sustainability technologies, and digital transformation initiatives are frequently funded. Innovation and research driven projects often receive higher support rates.

  • Yes, there are EU wide programmes such as Horizon Europe and the European Innovation Council. These programmes support cross border innovation, research activities, and high impact technological development across Europe.

  • Funding programmes are published by regional authorities, national ministries, development banks, and EU institutions. A structured overview of active programmes helps companies identify relevant opportunities based on country, sector, and project type.

  • Most funding applications require a detailed project description, budget planning, implementation timeline, company information, and technical specifications. Innovation programmes may additionally require market analysis or impact assessments.

  • Approval times vary depending on the programme and country. Regional programmes may take a few weeks, while national or EU programmes can require several months due to evaluation procedures.
