The non-refundable funding of the call financed from the NRDI Fund may be used for preparing the business plan and feasibility study for the product idea which can contribute to the successful participation in the second stage of the H2020 call.

In the seventh assessment round, between 17 March and 15 June 2017, six proposals were submitted with a total funding request of HUF 24 million. Five of these met the formal requirements and were considered suitable for professional assessment. The assessment was performed by an international panel of experts against the international assessment criteria of the given programme. Subsequently, the Innovation Board recommended all five proposals for funding to the President of the NRDI Office based on the assessment results and the ranking.

Previously, in the 1st and 2nd round 9 projects received nearly HUF 35.6 million, in the 3rd round 4 projects received HUF 16 million, in the 4th round 1 project received nearly HUF 4 million, in the 5th round 2 projects received HUF 8 million, and in the 6th round 2 projects also received HUF 8 million in funding.

Together with the award decision of the 7th round, 36% of the budget of the KKV_15 call has been disbursed, so HUF 64 million is still available.
