Two calls for proposals aiming at supporting specifically Ukrainian
entrepreneurs and businesses have been published on 28 February 2023.
The call for proposals Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs - Ukraine
(ReadyForEU) (SMP-COSME-2023-EYEUA) aims at matching New
Entrepreneurs with Ukrainian citizenship. The submission deadline is 11
May 2023 and projects should start on 1 October 2023 (indicative dates). Call
text, submission system etc. are available at the main call web site at Funding & tenders (europa.eu). At the
specific call website
of EISMEA, you can find further information, the Quality Manual for EYE
Intermediary Organisations and an important document required for the
submission (Annex 5 – additional information to Application Form Part B).
The above EYE call is accompanied by a 2nd one, Support
to Ukrainian companies to integrate into the Single Market(SMP-COSME-2023-SMEUA). This one focuses on businesses based in Ukraine
and displaced Ukrainian-registered companies currently operating from the EU.
The role of the consortium to be selected is to select Ukrainian companies that
can benefit from direct support, and to help them integrate into the Single
Market. A special focus will be provided to support women and social economy
entrepreneurs.
Both actions are flagship activities under the Single Market Programme’s
2023 Work Programme.
