Grants for startups in Ukraine and the EU
27 open calls
Open calls where startups are explicitly eligible: state programmes via the Ukrainian Startup Fund and Brave1, European EIC Accelerator, EIT and Horizon Europe, corporate and donor accelerators. The list is built from the GetGrant catalogue automatically and shows only calls with a valid deadline or rolling applications.
For a startup a grant almost always means co-funding and reporting, so check three things before applying: stage (idea, MVP, sales), sector (defence, AI, climate, medtech have dedicated programmes) and legal form (company, sole proprietor or team). Amounts range from a few thousand dollars in accelerators to a 2.5 million euro grant plus equity in the EIC Accelerator. Applications go directly to the funder; each card links to the official page.
