EC provides funding to SMEs > Instruments
✤
Definition of european SME (in 2012, EU 7th Framework Programme)! ≤ € 50 m ≤ € 10 m ≤€2m
Funding opportunities: grants, loans and guarantees! Programmes at national/ region level :! ✤ Thematic funding opportunities : Environment, research, education -> subsidies part of the costs of a project! ✤ Structural funds : Regional and social development -> direct contribution to finance projects! ✤ Financial instruments -> available indirectly, via national financial intermediaries! ✤ Support for the internationalisation of SMEs -> assistance to access markets outside the EU! Information on the Enterprise Europe Network in the Member states! Date: 04 / 12 / 2014

EC provides funding to SMEs in R&D
✤
Co-operative (CRAFT) Projects (Horizon 2020 - ICT research & Innovation Actions : Cyber-physical systems) -> the R&D needs of SMEs, conducted within the project by 2 or more research providers; development of new products and services, !
€0.5 to 2 million
Evaluation of projects > Criteria
✤
Scientific and technological excellence and the degree of innovation!

EU Specific Action, NANOROADS for SMEs
✤
The project aims to develop technology roadmaps and use them to facilitate the transfer of European research results from the nanotechnological field to SMEs. The project has three phases:! ✤
✤
✤
Market driven approach -> SWOT analyses to identify technological hurdles and the means to overcome using nano materials, in automotive, aeronautical, medical and health, and energy sectors! Technology driven approach -> properties of materials and applications for the sectors : metals and alloys, ceramics, polymers, composites, nano-glasses, carbon-based and biological materials! roadmapping of these sectors!
