ISMC launches the National Desk to support access to R&D&I funding
The Iberian Sustainable Mining Cluster (ISMC) continues to strengthen its commitment to innovation and the growth of its members with the launch of the ISMC National Desk, a new exclusive service designed to facilitate access to the main national funding schemes for R&D&I projects.
This service has been created to support cluster members in transforming innovative ideas into successfully funded projects, through comprehensive support throughout the entire process.
The National Desk is managed in collaboration with two ISMC members, the Instituto Tecnológico de Aragón (ITA) and Fundación ICAMCYL, combining technical expertise and funding know-how to maximise the success rate of each proposal.
A comprehensive service to boost innovation projects
Through the National Desk, companies will have access to a range of services covering all stages of the funding process:
- Expert advice on national funding opportunities for R&D&I projects
- Identification of the most suitable national funding schemes
- Technical and strategic evaluation of project potential
- Support in the definition, structuring and preparation of proposals
- Personalised and confidential guidance throughout the process
- Support during project submission, implementation and reporting
This approach ensures continuous, tailored support aligned with the needs of each company, with the aim of maximising success rates and facilitating access to innovation funding.
