How to read a grant call
The deadline, the budget and who may apply are on the call. StartCG does not copy them and does not submit for you.

This is a StartCG summary, not legal, tax, or investment advice. Confirm fees, forms and deadlines on the official page before you act.
Read in this order
- Who may apply: company, team, sector, age of the company, place of the seat
- What is funded, and what you must co-finance
- The deadline printed on that call, including the hour and the portal
- What you must report if you win
- What happens to the money if you miss a report
Use the Fund’s own doors
The Innovation Fund publishes programmes on its site and names an application portal. A page here can point there. It cannot know that a call opened this morning. If our calendar has no date, that is deliberate: a copied deadline is how founders miss the real one.
A call is not a promise
A line on a slide is not the eligibility text. Write the budget from the call’s rules. When the text and the portal disagree, ask the contact the Fund itself publishes.
If this summary and an official page disagree, follow the official page.
