Funding for innovation, sustainability and international collaboration [dccadmindcc](https://www.winnovart.com/news/author/dccadmindcc) February 07, 2018 At the beginning of 2018, our special funding recommendation was …  the EEA & Norway grants across Northern, Central, Eastern and Southern Europe. 2.8 billion euro are becoming available starting this year, for a variety of areas, with an estimated 30% expected to go to the private sector. Our [overview of the programmes addressing private sector companies](https://www.winnovart.com/eea-norway-grants-2014-2021-programmes-addressing-private-sector-companies/). A special focus is on topics like green industry innovation, energy efficiency, ICT innovation, Blue Growth. Most of the 15 Beneficiary States have signed MoUs with the Donor States. While the [official website](https://eeagrants.org/) is the most comprehensive source of information, at Winnovart we are focused on the [information relevant for the business sector](https://www.winnovart.com/funding-highlights/eeanorway-grants/eeanorway-grants-news/).  … Please follow our reviews and recommendations on the funding availability for the private sector, across the Beneficiary States having signed to date the Memorandum of Understanding with the Donor States: [Bulgaria](https://www.winnovart.com/eea-norway-grants-eur-210-million-allocated-bulgaria/), [Czech Republic](https://www.winnovart.com/eea-norway-grants-eur-184-5-million-allocated-to-the-czech-republic/), [Estonia](https://www.winnovart.com/eea-norway-grants-more-than-eur-68-million-allocated-to-estonia/), [Greece](https://www.winnovart.com/eea-norway-grants-eur-96-5-million-allocated-to-greece/), Latvia, [Malta](https://www.winnovart.com/eea-norway-grants-eur-8-5-million-allocated-to-malta/), Poland, [Portugal](https://www.winnovart.com/eea-norway-grants-more-than-eur-102-million-allocated-to-portugal/), [ Romania](https://www.winnovart.com/eea-norway-grants-eur-502-5-million-allocated-romania/), [Slovakia.](https://www.winnovart.com/eea-norway-grants-more-than-eur113-million-allocated-to-slovakia/) At Winnovart, we are dedicated to enable our clients access to Know-How and Expertise from the Donor States, through our presence and network of partners in Norway and Iceland. The bilateral dimension of the projects is a key aspect and opportunity under the EEA & Norway grants. As a new feature, the EEA & Norway grants have launched 2 international instruments for transnational and or cross-border projects, consortium -based: [1. The Fund for Youth Employment](https://www.winnovart.com/eur-60-million-to-combat-youth-unemployment-in-europe-first-call-of-the-eea-norway-grants-2014-2021/) and [ 2. The Fund for Regional Cooperation](https://www.winnovart.com/eea-norway-grants-fund-for-regional-cooperation-eur-34-5-million-for-transnational-and-cross-border-cooperation-projects/). With a total budget of approx. 100 million euro, the 2 instruments are an opportunity to bring together expertise from Donor States, other non-eligible EU states and dynamic organizations from Beneficiary States or Partner states, on challenges and topics of common interest. At Winnovart we see these 2 funds as a unique instrument in Europe, enabling organizations from less developed European countries to have access to a Horizon2020-type of programme, more niched and with higher success chances. It will be very interesting to see the outcomes.   Categories: [2018](https://www.winnovart.com/category/2018/), [EEA&Norway grants](https://www.winnovart.com/category/eeanorway-grants/), [News](https://www.winnovart.com/category/news/) | [Permalink](https://www.winnovart.com/eea-norway-grants-in-2018-with-winnovart-funding-for-innovation-sustainability-and-international-collaboration/) [News](https://www.winnovart.com/news/tag/news), [2018](https://www.winnovart.com/news/tag/2018), [EEA&Norway grants](https://www.winnovart.com/news/tag/eeanorway-grants) ![](https://www.winnovart.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/Banner_Norway_2018_v3-250x141.png) [![Facebook](https://www.winnovart.com/hubfs/social-media-icons/facebook-icon.png)](https://www.facebook.com/winnovart/) [![Twitter](https://www.winnovart.com/hubfs/social-media-icons/twitter-icon.png)](https://twitter.com/winnovart) [![LinkedIn](https://www.winnovart.com/hubfs/social-media-icons/linkedin-icon.png)](https://www.linkedin.com/company/winnovart) [Winnovart Surveys](https://www.winnovart.com/news/tag/surveys) [Subscribe to Winnovart's Newsletter](https://share.hsforms.com/16rADODCGRgKIED9KhD-HBA2cxgb) Check your funding readiness [Service options – Winnovart](https://www.winnovart.com/funding-highlights/eeanorway-grants/eeanorway-grants-news/eeanorway-bilateral-dimension/) [Contact us! \>\>](https://www.winnovart.com/contacts/) ### ARCHIVE [News & Updates 2021](https://www.winnovart.com/news/archive/2021) [News & Updates 2020](https://www.winnovart.com/news/archive/2020) [News & Updates 2019](https://www.winnovart.com/news/archive/2019) [News & Updates 2018](https://www.winnovart.com/news/archive/2018) [News & Updates 2017](https://www.winnovart.com/news/archive/2017) [News & Updates 2016](https://www.winnovart.com/news/archive/2016) [Go to Winnovart Surveys for fundraising intelligence](https://www.winnovart.com/news/tag/surveys) Copyright © 2010 - 2026 Winnovart [Disclaimer](https://www.winnovart.com/about-us/disclaimer)  |  [Privacy Policy](https://www.winnovart.com/privacy-policy2018/) [Follow us on Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/winnovart/) [Follow us on Twitter](https://twitter.com/winnovart) [Follow us on LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/winnovart/)
