Grant for Innovation and Development in Cybersecurity (Küberturvalisuse innovatsiooni ja arenduse toetus)
Ettevõtluse ja Innovatsiooni Sihtasutus (EIS)
A narrow but genuinely open R&D grant for Estonian companies whose business is cybersecurity products and services. Projects must involve a qualified partner from an EU or EEA member state. The four named areas are cybersecurity automation, artificial intelligence in cybersecurity, quantum-resistant cryptography and cybersecurity for space technology — applications outside those areas are a poor fit.
From idea to completed grant — five steps
- Describe the idea. Company name and a few sentences about the project — registration number and sector are fetched from the registry.
- Check your chances. Granteon assesses the project against the criteria in Grant for Innovation and Development in Cybersecurity (Küberturvalisuse innovatsiooni ja arenduse toetus) and tells you honestly whether it can be won — before you write.
- Write the application. The AI writes from your own facts, scores the draft like an award committee, and delivers it field by field within the portal's character limits.
- Complete the financing. Your own contribution is calculated. You can obtain a signed conditional commitment from an investor, and find consortium partners when the call requires them.
- Deliver and report. Reporting plan, draft reports and budget tracking after the award — until the final report is filed.
Granteon is free — including complete applications. You submit it yourself, and the application is yours.
