ProgrammesThe EIC has introduced the new Scaleup Europe Fund (SEF) in its 2026 Work Programme in order to (help) address the funding gap faced by European scale-ups in later growth stages. The fund will focus on key strategic areas, including digital and intelligent systems, physical and industrial systems and life and health sciences.
The SEF will operate as a market-based, privately managed investment vehicle, primarily providing equity investments with ticket sizes starting at €100 million. It will be implemented with the support of the European Investment Bank.
In addition to financial support, selected companies will benefit from access to the broader EIC ecosystem, including Business Acceleration Services.
With the launch of the SEF, Europe takes an important step towards strengthening its competitiveness, technological leadership, and economic security.
The updated programme can be found on the EIC-site.

The ROOT project obtained funding under Horizon 2020 topic ‘EGNSS applications fostering societal resilience and protecting the environment’. The project, which ran from November 2020 to July 2022, aimed to demonstrate the benefit of Galileo OSNMA signal to increase the robustness of critical telecom infrastructures.
The Flanders-based company Septentrio contributed substantially to completing this objective together with the other ROOT partners. The results of the project partially close a gap in the security of telecommunication networks dependent on satellite-derived time, with indirect benefits in curbing illegal attempts to disrupt network services.
