Applicants and beneficiaries of innovation-related actions under the Portuguese RRP
Next Generation EU (NGEU) is a temporary financial instrument launched to support EU member states’ recovery after the Covid-19 crisis in 2020. To access to NGEU funds – in particular the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) - Member States had to submit a national Recovery and Resilience Plan (RRP). Innovation investments play a key role in the thematic allocation of many national RRPs. In the case of Portugal, these investments account for around 10% of the total grants (cost-based estimations: €1,344 Million), which is aligned to the EU average.
The selection process of the beneficiaries of Research and Innovation (R&I) subsidies was done through a competitive call for applications.
R&I beneficiaries in the Portuguese RRP are mainly entities with more than 10 years of activity (69%), operating in knowledge intensive services (39%) and past beneficiaries of EU funds (66%). These characteristics also reflect more broadly the profile of overall applicants. R&I beneficiaries are mainly concentrated in the more innovative areas of Portugal, in particular in the central-north coastal area.
