Swedish organisations participating in international R&D projects are eligible for funding through our Network projects, Globalstars, Eurostars and Clusters programmes.

Vinnova supports Swedish organisations interested in international collaboration giving them access to expertise and supporting their growth.

Funding and support available

Partner search

Vinnova 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 project partners, contact Vinnova or consult the Enterprise Europe Network’s (EEN) online database. Vinnova also recommends contacting the EU SME support office for advice and support with your application.

Advice services and support tools

Vinnova offers advice and support from concept to commercialisation for organisations collaborating on international R&D projects. Vinnova has a designated free advisory programme (EU SME support) that offers expert support in project proposal writing for Swedish SMEs wishing to apply to Eureka’s funding programmes.

Funded programmes and schemes

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.
