Can you assess whether I can apply for / have a chance of receiving a grant or funding for my project?
Our website contains information on what grants we award and the types of projects we fund. Our experts and Board make funding decisions on an application-by-application basis. We do not make advance case-by-case evaluations regarding the likelihood of receiving funding.
Can I present my project and discuss the application with you in advance?
We prefer to handle application related questions primarily via email. As a rule, we will arrange any meetings after the application has been submitted. Should questions arise about your application during the evaluation process or we need further information, we will contact you.
In which language should I submit my application?
You are free to choose one of our three supported languages: Finnish, English or Swedish. The choice of language does not affect the success of your application.
Do I need to include recommendations?
We do not require recommendations for any grants.
Can I apply for both the €8.000 and €32.000 grants on the same application round?
You can only submit one grant application per round. The grant is awarded only for the amount requested (either €8.000 or €32.000).
I submitted an application via the online service but I need to make changes. Can I update the application or add attachments?
You can make changes to your application within 24 hours of submission.
After submitting my application, I learned that I have been granted funding for the same project from another source. What should I do?
Congratulations for receiving funding!
Please, contact us by email without delay if you have received overlapping grants or funding. Also. let us know how it overlaps with the grant or project funding you have applied from us.

Click on “Delete”. If you are unable to delete your application, it is already under processing. In that case, please, contact us by email to request cancellation.
My project did not receive funding. Can I resubmit the same application?
We review all applications carefully. If your application has been evaluated and it has received a negative funding decision, we do not recommend resubmitting the same application. Please, note the we do not provide justifications for our decisions.
