FundingBox is a community where entrepreneurs can meet, interact and collaborate to win public funding.
FundingBox provides “scale ups” (startups and tech SMEs) with simple and personalised access to both public funding and interactive tech communities.
Awarding bodies use FundingBox to distribute their funding and build communities that can grow and become integral parts of their ecosystems.
FundingBox is the public funding community for innovative startups and SMEs.
FundingBox is the place where startups and SMEs they can find all the funding opportunities specifically for them that will be offered by H2020 projects, at least 800 Million euros till 2020.
We help to bridge the gap between the technology funding opportunities from the EC and the SMEs & startups that invest in those technologies to grow their businesses.
FundingBox offers tools & solutions for Accelerators and EU projects to manage Communities of Startups & SMEs attracted by Open Calls for Funding.
Moreover, FundingBox, itself, has been the platform selected by several FIWARE Accelerators funded by the European Commission, to directly manage their Open Calls. Concretely, we are participating in 3 ongoing projects, through which we have already distributed 12M€ for startups and web entrepreneurs through different calls for proposals.
We are ourselves a startup founded in 2012 by a passionate team with more than 20 years experience in winning public funding.
FundingBox is inspired by the Open Funding concept. We were awarded by the European Commision through the Crowdsourcing contest managed by OpenIdeo for the best web-entrepreneurship initiative.
