STADIEM Open Call 1:

It is a program that attracts the most promising tech startups, scaleups, and SMEs from around the world to participate. This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 951981

STADIEM’s Stages:

Startups/SMEs can apply to be part of the Match program. The goal is for startups to seek corporate partners into establishing a pilot or plan to get a pilot partner(s) . It goes on for 2 months. At least 16 startups guarantee that partners have confirmed their commitment to carry out the pilot within the period and plan allotted. But this time, it is for 6 months. Now, for 2 months, Startups and SMEs must have at least 12 startups merging, testing, or pre-pilot activities in preparation for public pilots. The aim is to create a more efficient way of doing business by combining and testing their processes and performance. For four months, at least four companies conduct public pilots with business partners in real-world settings.
