Supporting the digital transition co-funded by the NRP

By Ministerial Decree of March 10, 2023, Cyber 4.0 qualified as a National Technology Transfer Center and became a PNRR implementing party on behalf of the Ministry of Business and Made in Italy (Mission 4, Component 2, Investment 2.3).

The Center is therefore now a simplified channel for accessing PNRR funds, which can be disbursed in the form of business incentives and co-financing of research and innovation projects.

Institutional Services can be provided with varying co-funding percentages depending on the type of service and company size, according to the table in the Decree
