This grant is designed to support the most promising and innovative projects and is managed by the European Innovation Council.

✅ It provides funding for the latest developments right up to their market launch.
If you are a UK SME you can apply for a grant (only) up to €2.5m to cover a maximum of 70% of your total eligible costs. Irish companies can apply for blended finance (grant and equity) and or investment up to €10m.
To help you achieve this, we first need to understand the facts of your project. This is your opportunity for a discussion about your innovative R&D projects with our Grant Funding Manager, who will guide you through the grant funding application process.
Following this meeting and signing an agreement, ABGi Ireland will work with you to prepare the various elements of the application to submit to the grant funding provider:
✓ A detailed list of responses to the core questions asked by the grant provider;
✓ A financial projection of the project costs, justifying a value for- money proposition for taxpayers’ money;
✓ An achievable and realistic project plan that will help guide your project from start to finish;
✓ Further appendix documents when required.
