One month left to participate in the Digital Innovation Challenge for Europe’s SMEs and startups

Digital Innovation Challenge

Only one month left to take part in the Digital Innovation Challenge! SMEs and startups are invited to propose innovative services and solutions based on open and reusable solutions developed by European Commission's ISA² Programme and Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) Building Blocks. The participants can win EUR 50.000 (1st place), EUR 20.000 (2nd place) and EUR 10.000 (3rd place).

Through this Challenge, the European Commission aims to experiment with new ways for engaging with SMEs and startups to re-imagine how open and reusable solutions are created and promoted, stimulate awareness and, ultimately, increase their adoption.

To see the list of solutions and details of how to apply, check out the Digital Innovation Challenge website for more details. The next information session will take place on 30 January 2020.

The European Commission launched the Digital Innovation Challenge on 7 November 2019 at the Web Summit 2019 in Lisbon, Portugal. The Challenge targets SMEs and startups that would like to give their business a boost by going digital with already existing tools and components. The Commission offers a portfolio of open and reusable solutions with basic capabilities to facilitate the delivery of digital services in an interoperable manner across borders and sectors. 

Deadline for applications: 28 February 2020, 12.00 pm Brussels time
