Your real odds
Eurostars is the world's largest SME R&D funding programme and runs twice a year, so you are competing against a broad international field.
Your national odds depend heavily on which country you apply through, because each National Funding Body sets its own eligibility rules and budget caps.
What it takes
Confirm eligibility with your National Funding Body — rules and funding rates differ by country1–2 weeks
Form your international consortium (at least one partner from another Eurostars country)2–6 weeks
Write and submit the project application via the Eureka Project Management Platform before the call deadline4–8 weeks
Worth knowing
Funding comes directly from your National Funding Body rather than from Eureka centrally, so contacting your national agency before you apply is essential, as they control the budget, eligible activities, and the funding rate that applies to your organisation.
