Initiative is part of the EEN2EIC project and reinforces support for deep tech startups
On March 20, ANI organized a training session for Enterprise Europe Network (EEN) Portugal Advisors. The aim was to update their knowledge of the EIC Accelerator program and strengthen their skills in advising startups that are preparing applications for this European funding mechanism.
The session took place at the ANI Auditorium in Porto, as part of the EEN2EIC project, an initiative that aims to support the EIC Accelerator application process for Portuguese deep tech companies, with a special focus on those led by women, as well as helping those awarded the Seal of Excellence to find alternative sources of funding.
The initiative was led by Michael Kerschbaumer, an Austrian coach at SFG, who shared his experience and expertise in supporting deep tech startups in his region.
The event was attended by advisors from ANI, IAPMEI, INESC TEC, AEPortugal and CEC/CCIC, as well as the startup CMATERIALS, reinforcing the importance of collaboration to boost national innovation and business growth.
