Public Funding Repository

This deliverable, D.3.2 Public Funding Repository, represents the key output of ‘Task 3.2 – Identifying resources to support the implementation of the action plans’ under work package 3 (WP3) of the EMPOWEREDbyNEIA project. It provides a comprehensive overview of the primary public funding opportunities available (2024-2025) at European level and within the project partners’ national and regional level.

The core objective of Task 3.2 is to systematically map the existing funding landscape, spanning public funding sources across national, regional, and European levels. The result of this effort is a robust and accessible repository, designed as an actionable agenda of public funding opportunities. This repository serves as an essential tool for innovation stakeholders, fostering strategic connections with funding agencies, industry players, and local investors to drive impactful projects forward.

A distinctive element of this deliverable is its detailed documentation of funding opportunities specific to each partner region. The repository features tailored sections that highlight national, regional, and local funding programmes in Austria, Bulgaria, Croatia, Estonia, Italy, Poland, and Romania. By focusing on the unique funding landscapes of these regions, the deliverable ensures that stakeholders within diverse ecosystems can access relevant and context-specific information. This targeted approach helps address disparities in funding accessibility and promotes meaningful cross-border collaboration.
