The Innovative Starters Award is back

Until 08 July 2022, projects that want to have a chance at this valuable funding can be submitted.

Young companies with innovative projects are often change makers with a real sustainable impact within their field and beyond. Securing a place in the market remains a challenge where funding can provide the tipping point, both as a start-up and as a growth company. Brussels continues to focus on stimulating and financing start-ups and scale-ups. Innoviris is launching the 12th edition of the successful funding programme Innovative Starters Award (ISA). 

This ‘Award’ is not just a prestigious statuette or a podium, but a substantial financing of EUR 500 000 for the laureates of the programme.

The Brussels government puts those first interested euros on the table, which serve as a door opener to realise the Strategic Innovation Plan of a start-up and can attract future investors who can confidently support groundbreaking projects. Since the launch of the ISA in 2010, almost 30 start-ups and scale-ups such as CollibraCitizenlab or Fyteko have successfully grown in various fields, both within and far beyond our borders. 

Until 08 July 2022, ambitious projects that want to have a chance at this valuable funding can be submitted. All information about the programme and application is available here.
