AiNed MIT AI call for SMEs launched to boost AI innovation power in the Netherlands

Are you working with other SME entrepreneurs to develop or innovate products, production processes or services in the field of AI? Then the MIT scheme may be for you.
The nationwide AiNed MIT AI call (RVO 2024) kicks off on Tuesday, March 19, 2024, aiming to bolster AI projects among SMEs. With a total grant budget of 3.55 million euros, the MIT scheme seeks to enhance AI innovation in the Netherlands and expedite the implementation of newly developed AI technology.

SMEs play a pivotal role in driving economic prosperity, social welfare, and addressing societal challenges through AI applications. However, they often encounter barriers in applying AI due to a gap between knowledge and practical implementation. To address this, the AiNed MIT AI call is part of the National Growth Fund Programme AiNed, aiming to bridge this gap and empower SMEs in AI innovation.

For those seeking partners or inspiration, interviews with startups utilizing the MIT scheme offer valuable insights. Additionally, exploring the Dutch selection of startups in the European AI Startup Landscape can provide inspiration for project proposals. The RVO website offers further resources, including an overview of projects funded through this scheme.
