ProgrammesThe European Innovation Council (EIC) selected 71 cutting edge companies for funding, combining grants and equity, following the last 2024 EIC Accelerator cut-off in October. They have been selected among 1211 submitted proposals, out of which 431 have been invited to the jury interviews.
21% of the selected companies are led by women (as CEO, CSO or CTO), while there is a geographical spread spanning 16 countries.
Four of the selected companies have benefitted from the ‘Plug In’ scheme. The scheme allows funding bodies managing certified national/regional programmes to submit projects from their portfolio directly to the full application stage of the EIC Accelerator.
A further 330 applications that were assessed positively by the EIC jury, but for which there was insufficient funding available, will be awarded a Seal of Excellence. This recognition helps these companies to find alternative funding sources, including from the Recovery and Resilience Funds and European Regional Development Funds.
3 Belgian organisations will receive blended financing.
