SME Instrument and Prototype and verify
The European Commission has used a special SME Instrument to develop European innovative SMEs. Some developed regions, as well as the city of Brno, responded in cooperation with the JIC to the possibility of financing very promising and risky business plans, which achieved excellent evaluation by EU experts (or obtained a Seal of Excellence), but did not reach EC funding. Presented by SME Instrument Brno. The current new Prototype and Verify tool goes to lower levels of technological readiness and selects risky and promising projects for which it finances their technological and market readiness.
