EU FUNDING
Even the greatest ideas risk remaining unrealised without a strategic orientation and financial means.
The Digital for Planet team of EU funding experts has a long history of working with researchers, industry players and policy makers in the ICT sector and beyond. Together, we can help you define winning strategies and access funding opportunities to make digital innovation sustainable.
EU Funding for Sustainable Digital Innovation
Several public and private financial ventures and European funding programmes are allocated at national and international level to grant innovative projects underpinning the European Green Deal Goals and the Sustainable Development Goals.
Horizon Europe, the EU’s key research and innovation programme (2021-2027) dedicates over 35% of its budget to addressing climate change. Itfunds projects that develop new technologies and foster sustainability in key digital domains. The focus topics addressed within Horizon Europe are all-round, from a reliable assessment and reduction of the environmental footprint of the European Cloud-Edge-IoT Continuum to the evolution of 6G and the future telecommunication networks.
Depending on the field of application, digital sustainability projects can receive funding from a wide range of European funding programmes, such as Digital Europe, LIFE, EIC, as well as ERDF, EAGF, EAFRD, and Cohesion Fund.
