Eureka
Eureka is a collaborative network of 41 member countries and 3 associate countries (South Africa, South Korea and Canada) created to promote co-operation between companies and researchers in Europe on market-related research and technological development. The aim of Eureka is to strengthen the competitiveness of European industry on the world market, with projects involving companies, institutions and public authorities from at least two member countries.
Swedish organisations participating in international R&D projects are eligible for funding through different programmes like Eurostars, Globalstars and Innowwide.
Eurostars
Eurostars is a funding instrument that supports innovative SMEs and project partners (large companies, universities, research organisations and other types of organisations) by funding international collaborative R&D and innovation projects.
Globalstars
Calls for R&D projects with partners in a specific country outside the Eureka network.
Innowwide
Innovative SMEs receive a grant of 60,000 euro to assess the viability of research or commercial ambitions in international target markets.

EIT Digital builds the next generation of digital ventures, digital products and services, and breeds digital entrepreneurial talent, helping business and entrepreneurs to be at the frontier of digital innovation by providing them with technology, talent, and growth support.
Horizon Europe
Horizon Europe is the EU’s framework programme for research and innovation and runs from 2021 to 2027. Swedish companies, organisations and research institutions can apply for funding from the proposed €94 billion budget on the same terms as their counterparts in other EU countries.
Horisont Europa has three main specializations (so-called pillars) within which project can receive funding.
The second pillar goes under the name "Global challenges and European industrial competitiveness" and highlights the industry's crucial role in achieving the overall goals of Horisont Europa.
This pillar is in turn divided into 6 clusters. Cluster 4 focuses on Digital, Industry and Space and Cluster 5 focuses on Climate, energy and mobility.
