The European Innovation Council (EIC) selected 68 companies for funding, combining grants and equity, following the first in 2024 EIC Accelerator cut-off in March. 

The companies were selected in a highly competitive process. From a total of 969 companies that submitted a full proposal, 347 companies were interviewed by juries of experienced investors and entrepreneurs. The jury then selected the 68 best companies to receive funding. The selected companies have a geographical spread spanning 17 countries. Together, the selected companies will receive an estimated €411 million in funding, of which up to €165 million in grants and an estimated €245 million in equity. 

Among the selected companies is Pharrowtech, based in Leuven (https://pharrowtech.com/). Pharrowtech spun out of IMEC and designs and develops mmWave radio frequency technology for next-generation wireless applications.
