Key public funding schemes in France & Europe
France and Europe offer a wide range of public funding and tax incentive schemes to support innovation, R&D, investment and growth projects.
Explore the main funding mechanisms below and request a free eligibility assessment to identify the solutions best suited to your project.
The CIR is the French R&D tax credit designed to support companies investing in research and development activities.
It allows eligible companies to recover up to 30% of qualified R&D expenses incurred in France.
The CII supports SMEs developing innovative products that go beyond the current state of the market.
It covers up to 20% of eligible innovation expenses, helping accelerate product development and market launch.
The JEI (Young Innovative Company) and JEC (Young Innovative Growth Company) statuses provide tax and social exemptions to innovative companies meeting specific R&D criteria.
These schemes significantly reduce employment and tax costs during key growth phases.
European and national innovation grants support high-impact projects in areas such as technology, industry, energy transition and sustainability.
These schemes include non-dilutive funding programs such as Horizon Europe, France 2030, ADEME and regional grants.
The IP Box tax regime allows companies to benefit from a reduced corporate tax rate on income derived from eligible intellectual property assets, such as patents and software developed through R&D activities.
It is a powerful lever to optimize the taxation of innovation-related revenues in France.
Collaborative projects support joint R&D initiatives involving multiple partners such as companies, research centers and academic institutions.
These programs encourage innovation through cooperation and provide access to public grants and co-funded research schemes at national and European levels.
France offers a comprehensive R&D tax incentive framework combining CIR, CII, JEI/JEC statuses and tax approvals.
AREAD supports companies in securing approvals, managing compliance and optimizing their innovation funding strategy over the long term.
