Eurostars call for collaborative R&D projects

Innovate UK is investing up to £2.5 million to support collaborative, innovative projects in industrial research

This funding is for UK businesses applying to Call 6 of Eureka's Eurostars programme, supporting international collaboration and the creation of innovative products, processes, or services.

This funding opportunity is open in theme. Businesses across all sectors can apply with projects that have high market potential.

Projects must include at least one partner from the Eurostars network and should focus on developing innovative products, technology-based applications, or services.

UK registered SMEs can apply for a total grant of up to €360,000 for each eligible UK project partner or 60% of total eligible project costs, whichever is the least.

Proposals must showcase a clear, game-changing idea that leads to new products or services, along with a strong business plan addressing market needs.

If you are a UK lead applicant, you must complete the Eureka application on behalf of your project. You must follow the process on the Eureka call for proposals web page on the Eureka website.

If you want help to find a project collaborator, contact Enterprise Europe Network.
