This funder does not publish a success rate. We rank it using the rate observed across similar programmes and label it as an estimate rather than implying we know.
Quick — mostly identity and bank details.
This is de minimis aid. It counts against the €300,000 ceiling that applies to your company across a rolling three years in this member state (Commission Regulation (EU) 2023/2831). If a new award would take you over, Article 3(7) disqualifies that award in full rather than reducing it — so check your headroom before you apply, not after. Check your headroom for Slovakia.
Who can apply
- Stage: pre-seed and seed
- R&D activity required
- Locally registered entity required
Natural or legal persons registered and doing business in Slovakia, any size; registered seat in Slovakia; startups may submit a business plan instead of accounts; no voucher previously reimbursed under other ZIVSE 2 calls.
