What this call funds

Norwegian organisations with a formal role in an EU Horizon Europe or European Defence Fund application can get fixed-rate support to prepare the proposal, paid only if the EU application reaches the threshold. Small and medium enterprises qualified for EIC Accelerator step 2 or EIC STEP Scale Up can receive up to NOK 100,000, and the total budget is about NOK 41 million for 2026. The call is rolling, with EIC Accelerator cut-offs in 2026 and applications due at least four weeks before the EU deadline.
