Blended finance
A package that combines a grant with an equity investment. The EIC Accelerator is the main example, with up to €2.5M in grant plus a €1–10M equity ticket from the EIC Fund.
Why it matters
You apply once, but you take on an investor as well as a grant, so plan your ownership around it.
