CDTI PID Program
The Program provides funding for Research and Development Projects aimed at “significantly improving processes, products, or services”. To be beneficiaries of the aid, companies, regardless of their sector of activity, can carry out both industrial research and experimental development activities.
The minimum budget that can be financed by the CDTI PID Program is 175,000€ (the maximum aid intensity is 85% of the project, so the company must contribute at least 15% of it through its own resources) and the projects to be developed must last between 12 and 36 months.
