Kort sammanfattning SME instrumentet riktar sig till alla typer av innovativa små och medelstora företag som har en stark ambition att utvecklas och växa internationellt Aktiviteter nära marknad Affärs-coachning ingår vid sidan av bidrag eller tillgång till riskkapital Varje fas är öppen för nya sökande

SME instrumentet Affärsplan I Fas I - Förstudie av koncept - Riskbedöming - IPR - Partnersök Affärsplan II Fas II - FoU - Piloter på innovativa processer, produkter och tjänster Affärsplan III Fas III Kommersialisering Privat riskfinansiering Cirka 50000 Cirka 6 månader 1 3 miljoner 12-24 månader Kvalitetsstämpel Ingen direkt EU finansiering Key Account Manager

Fas 1: Utvärdering av konceptet och genomförbarheten En fast bidragssumma på 50000 Den totala kostnadern i fas 1 är egentligen 71249 eftersom finansieringsgraden är 70% från EU 6 månaders projekt För att undersöka och utvärdera den tekniska genomförbarheten OCH den kommersiella potentialen För innovationer med stort nyhetsvärde i sin bransch (nya produkter, processer, tjänster, arbetssätt eller nya marknadstillämpningar av existerande teknologi)

Fas 1: Exempel på vad man kan göra Riskanalys Marknadsundersökning Involvera användare Hantera immateriella rättigheter Utveckla en innovationsstrategi Söka samarbetspartners Utvärdera genomförbarheten av konceptet / idén och innovationshöjden Formulera den europeiska dimensionen Analysera vad som kan hindra företagets förmåga att öka lönsamheten i företaget genom innovationen => för att höja RoI av innovationsaktiviteten Stäm av så att konceptet är i linje med företagets långsiktiga strategi Utvärderingen utgår från en 10 sidig presentation av de förutsedda affärs- och marknadsmöjligheterna (business innovation plan I)

Fas 1: Resultat Business Innovation Plan II Resultatet från fas 1 är en Business Innovation Plan II Utvärderingen i fas 1 kanske ger insikten att lösningen redan finns på marknaden (då kan man inte söka fas 2) eller att utvecklingsproblemet kan lösas genom köp av existerande know-how eller immateriella rättigheter (därmed kan man inte söka till fas 2) Utvärderingen kan också ge att ytterligare innovationsaktiviteter rekommenderas (vilket kan leda till en ansökan om bidrag i fas 2) Utvärdering kan resultera i att det är riskkapital som behövs och det kan leda till fas 3 som slussar över företaget till ett annat instrument inom H2020 "Access to risk finance"

Fas 2 Innovationsaktiviteter 0,5-2,5 miljoner, 12-24 månader, 70% finansiering Demonstrationsaktiviteter, tester, prototyputveckling, pilotinstallationer, scaling-up, miniatyrisering, design, marknads replikering Kan innehålla en viss del forskning Syftet är att föra fram innovationen så den blir industriellt färdig och mogen för att introduceras på marknaden

Fas 2: Resultat Business Innovation Plan III I slutet av fas 2 skall företaget ha utvecklat sin nya idé så den kan lanseras på marknaden Business innovation plan III ska innehålla en detaljerad kommersialiseringsstrategi och finansieringsplan som beskriver hur privat finansiering skall attraheras och användas

Fas 3 Kommersialisering Kvalitetsstämpel för framgångsrika projekt Underlättar att få tillgång till privat finansiering Stöd via nätverk, utbildning, coachning, information Hantera immaterialrättt, dela kunskap Ett särskilt fönster finns till EU:s finansieringsfaciliteter (lån och riskkapital) T ex Sparbanken Öresund H2020 och Cosme

Coachning Each beneficiary of the SME instrument will be offered business coaching support during Phase 1 (up to 3 coaching days) and Phase 2 (up to 12 coaching days) in addition to the grant provided in these phases. The support will be provided through the Enterprise Europe Network (EEN) and delivered by qualified and experienced business coaches. Phase 3 does not include individual business coaching, but SME instrument participants will be able to rely on continued EEN support in linking to relevant support services within the Network, regionally and nationally.

Vem kan söka? Ett enskilt vinstdrivande SME En grupp av vinstdrivande SMEs Andra partners kan vara med som tredje part t.ex. större företag, institut eller universitet som en underleverantör Endast SMEs från EU-länder och länder associerade till H2020 får söka I princip kan vilket lands företag som helst vara med som tredje part t.ex. som underleverantör

Start ups? Start-ups är inte exkluderade från SME instrumentet Det är inte tänkt att vara ett instrument för att skapa nya företag utan ett stödjande bidrag till tillväxt av företag med intressanta och innovativa idéer som har en europeisk eller global potential Finansiellt svaga företag kan få lite lägre bidrag och/eller kortare rapporteringsperioder

Finansiell validering Single participants are exempt from a financial capacity check, yet have to formally declare that they have the financial capacity to carry out the proposed action. För grupper av företag In phase 1, project coordinators will have to self-check their financial viability using the tool available via the Participant Portal. In phase 2, project coordinators receiving a grant of EUR 500,000 or more will have to undergo a financial viability check, in line with the specifications in the Horizon 2020 online manual published on the participant portal.
