Innovation Funding Programme for Research and Development in Companies (IFP)

Would you like to conduct a research and/or development project in your company? The IFP offers incentives to develop new marketable products, production processes, or services that represent a national innovation. These innovative projects are intended to help improve the market opportunities of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and small companies with medium market capitalization. The aim is to intensify both collaboration with research institutions and collaboration with other companies.
