OP EIC: deadlines prolonged and funds for allocation increased

The deadlines for submitting applications to participate in certain programmes under the Operational Programme Enterprise and Innovations for Competitiveness (OP EIC) have been extended. Moreover, funds for allocation within the Innovation programme have been raised.

We informed you about calls to participate in programmes currently open under OP EIC in this article. The number of applications filed in the first half of January was as follows:

  • Application – 527 applications; funds for allocation exhausted
  • Innovation – 58 applications; 78% of funds for allocation exhausted
  • Energy Savings– 182 applications; 70% of funds for allocation exhausted

Under the Application programme’s call no. VIII, the deadline for submitting applications was extended again, until 1 February 2021. A potential increase of the funds for allocation is currently being discussed.

Under the Innovation programme’s call no. VIII, the deadline for submitting applications was extended until 30 April 2021 and funds for allocation were increased by CZK 1.5 billion to a total of CZK 3 billion. Businesses that have not yet prepared their projects therefore still have a chance to receive support.

The extension of the deadline for submitting applications for support under the Energy Savings programme’s call no. VI is currently being considered. The deadline currently in effect is 30 April 2021.
