The SME Instrument is a support programme for innovative small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) in the EU's research framework programme HORIZON 2020 to scale promising products. The conditions for successful EU funding under the SME instrument are very demanding, which is why the programme is also referred to as the Champions League of innovative SMEs in Europe. With success rates in the range of only 1%, winning such a grant is an honour for any company and its development.
This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 872170.
