Factsheet on the SME call for projects
https://www.innosuisse.admin.ch/en/sme-call-for-projects
The call is open to research and implementation partners that fulfil the Innosuisse funding criteria, whereby each implementation partner must be registered in the Swiss registry of commerce and must have less than 500 full-time equivalents (FTE). In the case of companies that are controlled by another company, the number of full-time equivalents of the whole group of businesses is decisive.
Applications submitted within the scope of this call are assessed based on the existing assessment criteria for regular innovation projects with implementation partner. In specific cases, Innosuisse can reduce or waive in its entirety the amount of the financial contribution of the implementation partner on request.
As part of this call, we are drawing the attention of companies with fewer than 500 FTEs to this opportunity
