The third and final Smartx Call for funding is now open. You can find in the Guide for Applicants all information about the eligibility and selection criteria, the selection process and details on how coaches will help candidates to submit a clear and valid Application.
Please note that the documents have been updated after the first funding calls. If you are returning to the programme, please download the current versions.
If you wish to apply for SmartX support, the initial step is to fill an Expression of Interest, so that a dedicated coach will get in touch and start helping you.
Then, in order to file an Application you will have to sign and/or complete the documents below. Please download them and complete them at your convenience, then check with your coach that everything is in order. You will then receive a link to upload all the requested documents onto a restricted-access page dedicated to your project.
Please note that for Applications involving several partners, EACH OF THEM has to submit one Declaration on Honour and one Conflict of Interest Declaration.
- The Technical Application Form helps Applicants describe their project objectives, targets and what they expect from SmartX support
- The Powerpoint presentation Guidelines will help you to present projects in a concise way to allow the Selection Committee members to understand them with most clarity and accuracy
- The Declaration of Honour is a legal mandatory document to certify all Applicants meet the eligibility criteria and none of the excluding ones
- The Conflict of Interest declaration intends to prevent any possible conflict of interest from arising between any Applicant and any SmartX partner coach, as well as any Selection Committee member. It will enable each project to be viewed or processed only by SmartX partners and Selection Committee members who are not in a situation to cause potential conflict of interest with neither the Applicant nor the applying project.
We remain anyway at everyone’s disposal in case of questions : hello@smartx-europe.eu. You can find the FAQs here.
The deadline for sending your Expression of Interest is January 25, 2021 and for submitting the finalised Application February 15, 2021.
Brexit update: Companies from the UK are welcome to apply.
