Two men sit at a wooden table working on laptops in a cozy room with a shelf and a window nearby. One man is wearing glasses and both are focused on their screens, possibly discussing an EU funding digital guide for creatives.

Digital guide to facilitate access to EU funding for creatives

An interactive mapping tool summarizes and makes available EU funding opportunities across all EU funding programmes for self-employed persons and associations from the press, publishing houses, radio and audiovisual services.

There are now funding opportunities for the creative industries in almost all EU funding programs. However, maintaining an overview and recognizing where specific opportunities arise is a major challenge for the individual players in the European CCI. While these sectors largely consist of SMEs, start-ups and some larger companies, (non-profit) associations form an equally important part of the media ecosystem and are taken into account when selecting the funding schemes to be included. The online tool is the first practical guide for actors from the different sectors of the value chain on where to find EU support for their activities and needs. It covers funding streams that go beyond the sectoral Creative Europe program, such as Horizon Europe, InvestEU and others.
