The European Innovation Council is offering startups grants of up to €2.5 million through the EIC Accelerator, with no equity stake taken in return. The funding targets early-stage and scale-up companies developing innovative technologies, allowing founders to retain full ownership while accessing EU support. Entrepreneurs and investors are weighing the scheme as an alternative to venture capital amid tighter funding conditions for European startups.
