€2.8 million subsidy for SME innovation stimulation Top Sectors (MIT)

On Tuesday 4 April, the subsidy scheme SME Innovation Stimulation Top Sectors (MIT) will open. Startups, scale-ups and innovative SME entrepreneurs can receive a maximum of €20,000 in subsidy for a feasibility study into the development of an innovative product or a new service.

Please note: the total budget for an MIT scheme is often already oversubscribed on the day of opening. That is why we advise you to submit your application immediately on 4 April.

Want to know more about financing your innovation and using subsidies or risk-bearing financing? Ask your question to the business development team of @rominwest.
