What Makes an EUDP Application Successful?

Preparing a strong EUDP application requires both strategic alignment and attention to detail. Below is an overview of the key eligibility criteria, core elements, and documentation you need to include to ensure your project meets the requirements and stands out in the evaluation process.

Who can Apply

Foreign partners are allowed, but the main applicant must have a Danish CVR number, plus the project must clearly contribute to Danish tech environment development. Moreover, all applicants must be financially healthy to cover the self-funding component of the project's total costs. Evidence of self-funding capacity must be submitted.

Key Information in an EUDP Application:
