You can apply for up to SEK 2.5 million. Companies seeking funds are expected to co-finance their eligible costs by at least 50 percent. The maximum level of support depends on the type of activities carried out within the project.
To search funding you need to fill out an application form in our portal, Vinnova's eservices portal. The form contains questions about the project, project partners and budget.
