The European Commission backs PROSION with a 2.5 million grant through their prestigious EIC Accelerator, with the option for PROSION to receive additional funding through an equity investment.

The EIC accelerator supports individual small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to develop and scaleup game-changing innovations. Following a highly-competitive application process, the selected companies are offered a combination of grant financing and equity investment of up to €17 million for their breakthrough innovations.

Over 4000 SMEs all over Europe have sent their application to the EIC since March 2021. We at PROSION are extremely proud to be among the 65 selected companies. Having founded PROSION with a clear vision to make a difference in the fight against widespread diseases such as cancer, we wholeheartedly thank the European Commission and #EUeic for believing and investing in our innovation and look forward to our fruitful collaboration.
