In the ever-evolving world of innovation, access to funding opportunities plays a crucial role in transforming ideas into reality. Sploro, an organisation committed to promoting open calls for innovators, is thrilled to announce the launch of its first Cascade Funding webinar series.
This exciting event aims to provide valuable insights into cascade funding and present a series of monthly infodays that will serve as a gateway to countless opportunities for forward-thinking entrepreneurs and visionaries. The first session will be happening next 23rd June at 10.00 CEST. Registrations are now open through this link.
Cascade funding is a unique financing approach that supports innovation and collaboration across various stages of project development. Also known as financial support to third parties (FSTP), is an instrument of the European Commission to distribute public funds and generate opportunities for SMEs, startups and/or mid-cap companies, in the adoption or development of digital technologies. It aims to nurture a collaborative ecosystem by encouraging knowledge sharing, idea cross-pollination, and fostering a dynamic network of innovators.

At Sploro, our mission is to facilitate and promote open calls for innovators, ensuring that the most promising ideas receive the support they deserve. We believe that innovation knows no boundaries and that everyone should have the opportunity to transform their groundbreaking concepts into reality. By embracing a culture of openness and inclusivity, we aim to create a level playing field for all aspiring entrepreneurs, regardless of their background or location.
To further our commitment to empowering innovators, we are excited to introduce a series of monthly infodays as part of our Cascade Funding Info Session initiative. These infodays will serve as a platform to share exclusive cascade funding opportunities with ambitious startups and visionary individuals looking to make a significant impact in their respective fields. Each session will provide valuable insights, guidance, and networking opportunities to propel innovation forward.
