The European Funds for a Modern Economy 2021-2027 Programme is a continuation of the two previous programmes Innovative Economy 2007-2013 and Intelligent Development 2014-2020.
The Programme has the following objectives:
- to increase research and innovation capacity and the use of advanced technologies;
- to increase the competitiveness of SMEs;
- develop skills for smart specialisation, industrial transformation and entrepreneurship;
- to transform the economy towards Industry 4.0 and green technologies.
We want to achieve this through the implementation of instruments grouped into four priorities:
I – Support for entrepreneurs, i.e. providing co-financing in the areas of R&D, implementation of new solutions, R&D infrastructure, internationalisation, competence development, automation and robotisation, green economy.
II – Innovating-friendly environment, i.e. support for projects of strategic importance to the Polish economy, including, inter alia, development of public research infrastructure, transfer and commercialisation of technologies developed at universities and institutes, as well as strengthening the potential of business environment institutions such as accelerators, clusters, research institutions and broad support for start-ups.
III – Greening of enterprises, i.e. support for projects directly contributing to the objectives of the European Green Deal, including climate neutrality, green transformation of the economy and sustainable development. The offer to companies will include a green guarantee fund, a green credit and IPCEI projects. This will be complemented by innovative public procurement of R&D on technologies and products not yet on the market, desirable for social and environmental reasons.
IV – Technical assistance, i.e. providing systemic support to potential beneficiaries through the implementation of activities encouraging and facilitating the application for funds from the Programme, continuation of STEP and Innovation Coach, supporting beneficiaries in the implementation of projects, as well as providing administrative support in the implementation of the Programme.
The Programme offer is addressed to:
- enterprises,
