The framework of EU financial subventions and other grant opportunities is complex, wide and can be quite difficult to get a grasp on.
I³ can realise your project tailor made on your requirements and day by day business, turning opportunities into business development and competitive advantage.
I³ operates in various National, Regional and European programmes including:
Competitiveness and Innovation Framework Programme (CIP)
The Competitiveness and Innovation Framework Programme works to increase the competitiveness of European enterprises. The main target group of CIP is small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs), and it offers better access to finance, supports innovative activities, including eco-innovation, and provides business support services. CIP is divided into three operational programmes, each managed by a different Directorate General (DG): Entrepreneurship and Innovation Programme, ICT Policy Support Programme and Intelligent Energy Europe.
7th Framework Programme (FP7)
The Seventh Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development is the main Community instrument for financing transnational research and technological development actions in almost all scientific disciplines, in particular by encouraging undertakings by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), research centres and universities in their research and technological development activities. FP7 not only finances research projects, but also actions aiming to support or coordinate research, as well as building and maintaining networks. Support is also available for actions aimed of enhancing research capacities for frontier research and for the mobility of researchers.
Marco Polo II
Marco Polo II is a Transport Community programme supporting actions aiming to reduce congestion, improve the environmental performance of the transport system, and enhance intermodal transport, i.e. to facilitate theefficiency and sustainability of transport systems throughout Europe. The programme supports public private partnerships (PPPs) by providing risk-reducing subsidies to market driven services.

GALILEO
Galileo has been designed to establish the first satellite and positioning navigation system for civilian purposes. It will consist of 30 satellites, the associated ground infrastructure and local augmentations.
Culture 2007
The overall objective of the Culture 2007 programme is to enhance the cultural area common to Europeans through the development of cultural cooperation between the creators, cultural players and cultural institutions of the countries taking part in the programme, with aim of encouraging the emergence of European citizenship.
COST
COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology) is one of the longest-running European instruments supporting cooperation among scientists and researchers across Europe. This research initiative makes possible for the various national facilities, institutes, universities and private industry to work jointly on a wide range of Research and Development (R&D) activities. COST has clearly shown its strength in non-competitive research, pre-normative cooperation, and solving environmental, cross-border and public utility problems. Ease of access for institutions from non-member countries also makes COST a very interesting and successful tool for tackling topics of a truly global nature.
LIFE +
LIFE+ has been established in order to provide specific support for developing and implementing Community environmental policies and legislation, in particular the objectives of the Sixth Community Environment Action Programme (6th EAP). LIFE+ is the only separate financial instrument dedicated to funding actions of a uniquely environmental nature.
Public Health Programme
The Public Health programme strives to complement Member States’ activities and efforts in the field of health and works to protect and promote human health as well as improve public health. The Public Health programme will work in cooperation with other Community programmes and funds such as the Structural Funds, Community Statistical Programme and FP7.
Security and Safeguarding Liberties Framework Programme
The Security and Safeguarding Liberties Framework Programme encourages cooperation among European authorities in the fight against crime and terrorism, so that European citizens may live safely and freely. The main objectives of the programme are to increase cooperation among law enforcement, national authorities and the EU, to develop publicprivate partnerships and strategies on crime prevention, criminology, statistics and the protection of victims and witnesses, to promote prevention and preparedness using common security standards and exchanging information and good practices, and to develop effective EU crisis management systems to exchange information.
European Fisheries Fund (EFF)
The European Fisheries Fund (EFF) aims to strengthen the competitiveness and the viability of the operators in the sector, to promote environmentally friendly fishing and production methods and to foster sustainable development of fisheries areas.
European Development Fund (EDF)
The European Development Fund is designed to offer development assistance to the African, Caribbean and Pacific Group of States (ACP). EDF’s main aim is to encourage economic, political, cultural and social development of the ACP countries by promoting peace, security and democratic principles. The partnership lays down the main objectives of sustainable development and poverty reduction, by integrating ACP countries into the world economy.
