SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES

EIC Transition funds innovation activities that go beyond the experimental proof of principle in laboratory. It supports both the maturation and validation of a novel technology from the lab to the relevant application environments (by making use of prototyping, formulation, models, user testing or other validation tests) as well as explorations and development of a sustainable business case and business model towards commercialisation. 

This topic has no predefined thematic priorities and is open to proposals in any field of science, technology or application. For any chosen field, EIC Transition projects should address, in a balanced way, both technology and market/business development, possibly including iterative learning processes based on early customer or user feedback.

Description of the activities to be funded / Type of actions

  • Include, subject to the level of maturity of the technology, a suitable mix of research, technology development and validation activities to increase the maturity of the technology beyond proof of principle to viable demonstrators of the technology in the intended field of application.
  • Address market readiness towards commercialisation and deployment and other relevant aspects of regulation, certification and standardisation, aimed at getting both the technology and the business idea investment-ready.

Expected Results

The expected outcomes of an EIC Transition project are 

  • a technology that is demonstrated to be effective for its intended application and 
  • a business model, its initial validation and a business plan for its development to market. 

It is also expected that the intellectual property generated by your EIC Transition project is formally protected in an adequate way.
