The call Skills enhancement in small businesses 2023 is open

On the second of May, a new round of Medtech4Health’s Call for Skills Enhancement in Small Business opened. The aim is to help companies launch innovative medical technology products to the market.

Is your company ready for market establishment or facing internationalization? Then you have an advantage in this round because projects focused on these two are given higher priority this round.

The call is aimed at micro or small businesses operating in Sweden that need external expertise to develop. The goal is that the knowledge and experience that is added is also transferred to the employees of the company in order to strengthen it in the long term. In order to receive funding, the company must develop an innovative medical technology solution that improves clinical work or makes healthcare more efficient.

The companies applying for funding must work with the development, production and marketing of innovative medical technology products, i.e. a physical product, service or a process. In addition, they must have the goal of commercializing their product and eventually growing on an international market.

The maximum amount that can be applied for is SEK 200,000 and the project may last for a maximum of 12 months.

The call is open during the period 2 May 2023 up to and including 23 November. Allocation takes place on several occasions during the year: 1 June, 7 September and 23 November.
