About us
Italian organisations participating in international R&D projects are eligible for funding through our Eurostars programme. If you are based in Italy and seeking funding for an R&D project, your first point of contact is with the Ministry for Universities and Research (MUR) and the Ministry of Enterprises and Made in Italy (MIMIT). MUR and MIMIT support Italian organisations interested in international collaboration giving them access to expertise and supporting their growth.
The Ministry for Universities and Research (MUR) and the Ministry of Enterprises and Made in Italy (MIMIT) can help you to find project partners by contacting other national funding bodies in Eureka’s network (consisting of over 45 member countries). For more information on how to find international project partners, contact the MIUR or consult the Enterprise Europe Network’s (EEN) online database.
MUR and MIMIT offer advice and support from concept to commercialisation for organisations collaborating on international R&D projects. A network of national and international partners provides you with access to customised support and helps to integrate your organisation into the relevant industry.
Please see our resource on what programmes are funded in each country for more information.
We recommend that you get in touch with your national contact to talk about funding options even if a programme is listed as not funded. There might still be funding available.
In the absence of any national funding support, it is still possible to participate in a project by self-funding.
