Some information about these sustainable software fundings may be inaccurate or out of date. Thus, please revise the information, as we assume no liability for the correctness of the information to be seen here.
Do not use only the map but also the tabular below. Fundings are not always region specific. An organisation that offers a funding in Bruxelles may not be limited to Bruxelles. That funding can count in whole Belgium or even in whole Europe.
The markers are generated to show a random position in each city. Therefore, they do not point to the organization offering the fundings.
Tabular form of sustainability fundings for software companies
As mentioned above, in addition to our sustainable software funding map, it is also recommended to research with the help of this table. Search for a specific topic on sustainability funding for software companies or a specific region. We keep our fingers crossed for your application!
