What is this opportunity?
Proof-of-concept funding has been established to help businesses and ensure that an idea develops from the planning phase into the startup phase. It is for both innovative startups and existing SMEs (small to medium-sized enterprises). You can apply for subsidy from 1 January 2026 until 31 December 2026. Do you have a technically innovative idea, but is it still too early for investors to invest in your business? With Proof-of-concept funding, you can assess whether your idea is both technically and commercially viable. You can apply for Proof-of-concept through a national or regional office, depending on where your business is based.
