The Open Call for “EIC Solvers” programme
The Open Call for EIC Solvers is an exclusive opportunity for SMEs currently or previously funded by the European Innovation Council to test and pilot their innovation and develop a solution to a concrete challenge that exists in the public domain.
To apply, an EIC Solver must team up with a public organisation of their choice (Challenger), and propose both the challenge to be solved and the Solution to be developed.
