TEC4I FVG value-added services

What it funds

The notice opens access to the value-added services delivered by TEC4I FVG within the Hub Innovazione project, funded by the Region under its finance law. Understand the mechanism before reading further: no money reaches the company here, the benefit is a discount on the services' fee. The services are tailored to each single company: support for innovation and digitalization processes, lower risk on technology investments, digital and green transition. There are three categories, in decreasing order of coverage: assessment, test before invest, specialist consulting. The official text and the forms are on TEC4I's calls page.

Requirements and what is left out

• Anyone without a stable link to the region: it takes a listing in the business register with ongoing activity, plus the registered office or at least one operating unit in Friuli Venezia Giulia.
• No size limit: micro, small, medium and large companies enter on the same terms.
• Anyone operating in a sector excluded from European aid rules: the measure is open to every sector eligible to receive aid, the rest stay out.
• Anyone who exhausted their de minimis allowance: the benefit consumes that shared allowance, so with no remaining room there is nothing to apply for.
• Anyone looking for cash: the benefit never pays out money directly, it only reduces the fee owed to TEC4I for the services.

How to apply

1. Download the notice and the two forms from TEC4I's calls page: expression of interest and requirements declaration.
2. Fill in both and have them signed by the legal representative: the declaration also carries the company's de minimis position.
3. Send them as the notice instructs and keep proof of sending: review follows arrival order and the funds run out.
4. Wait for the grant notice by certified email after the requirements check: before deciding, TEC4I may ask for additions or clarifications.

The full conditions are on the national incentives catalogue page.

What this budget builds

I prepare the company to use these services as a client that knows what to ask for: I define the scope of the assessment before it starts, I put data and access in order before the test, and I turn the consulting into a work plan the people who stay can carry out. The risk with these paths is coming back with a report and no new capability: my job is that the report leaves behind a database, an automation or a procedure that keeps working.

This entry is informational and is not advice: I do not handle grant applications, and before committing to a purchase it is worth reading the official source above or talking to whoever files the application.
