The EUREKA Innovest Programme (E!nnoVest) supports innovative SMEs seeking private investment by taking them through a tailor-made process to become investment ready. The most promising SMEs are promoted towards the investment community and matched up with international investors.
The programme is open to all SMEs having participated in EUREKA projects (EUREKA Network projects, Eurostars and Clusters) as well as to all SMEs from Denmark, Finland, Norway, Portugal, Slovenia, Spain, South Korea, Sweden and Switzerland. Participation is free of charge.
