CIP deadline approaching
The deadline for KIC InnoEnergy’s, Call for Innovation Proposals (CIP) is coming to the end of its second opportunity to apply.
KIC InnoEnergy, has previously invested €147m into almost 80 products – helping innovators, researchers and companies on their way to commercial success.
With the launch of the second CIP for 2016 in June, European businesses (including start-ups, SMEs or larger with innovative sustainable energy projects at the research and development stage) have a second opportunity to apply.
If successful, KIC InnoEnergy could provide support by investing in research and development, working with project teams to shorten the time to market and provide businesses with technical support to keep the innovation on track.
The CIP will officially close on 11 October 2016; following this the most promising applicants will be asked to present their proposals to two KIC InnoEnergy Assessment Committees.
Successful applicants will be announced on 19 December 2016.
Diego Pavía, Chief Executive Officer of KIC InnoEnergy, said: “The Call for Innovation Proposals is focused on finding and developing new solutions that will make a substaintial contribution to achieving our goal of energy sustainability.
”With €3bn in forecasted sales from previously successful applicants, we are confident that the projects we are selecting will play a big role in cementing Europe as a leader in sustainable technologies.”
