The funding and support consists of three main funding schemes:
In each funding scheme, the direct financial support to innovators is augmented with access to a range of Business Acceleration Services.

In addition to these instruments there are the EIC Prizes, which reward innovative solutions offered by companies/organisations for pre-defined societal challenges or specific target audiences, such as women innovators, innovative cities, public or private procurers or social innovation.
