Support programs

Support options for your digitization project!

The European Digital Innovation Hub (EDIH) Saarland supports companies, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), public administrations and technology-oriented start-ups in their search for funding.
The focus is on digitalization and innovation.
Specifically, public funding programmes in particular offer monetary support for the financing of digitalization and innovation projects.
The majority of funding is granted as a non-repayable grant of up to 50% of the eligible costs.
In addition, companies can also receive private or public investments and low-interest loans from development banks.

Identifying suitable funding and understanding complex interrelationships can be tedious.
