/ EEA and Norway Grants

Does your company want to participate in international European projects to build knowledge, networks and possible new business opportunities? Read about the opportunities to apply for partnerships through EEA and Norway Grants.

Private companies can apply to participate as project partners in projects announced by EEA and Norway Grants. Norwegian companies can become project partners and participate in projects together with companies in one of the 15 European countries participating in the scheme. These are Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Greece, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia and Slovenia. The project promoter from one of the 15 countries is responsible for implementation.

As a project partner, you will have the opportunity to work with other actors to achieve goals in your field and to gain international experience and new networks. For some, collaboration can lead to further participation in European collaborations and create new business opportunities in the European market of 500 million inhabitants.

Projects that can be applied for

The projects that are open for applications vary of course, are in many different sectors and have a wide range. Examples include projects in green innovation, blue growth, hydropower, electrification and ICT. On the EEA and Norway Grants website you will find an overview of projects that are open for participation. Please note that the individual call for proposals states who can apply for partnership in the project.
