It's time to test your idea
Given the financial resources available for the year 2026, no new projects can be funded during 2026. No new calls will be launched and all funding schemes will be suspended in 2026.
In this context, the activities of the “Test Your Idea” facilitation service are temporarily suspended until May 10 inclusive.
For your information, here is a list of Brussels-based organizations you may find useful to contact:
- Brussels Economy and Employment
- Hub Brussels
- Incubators
- Local economy support offices
- Accelerators
- Finance & Invest
- Sustain
- Buildwise
- FARI
Are you a Brussels-based innovation actor with a project to improve or create a new product, process, or service?
Would you like to know whether your idea could potentially benefit from financial support from Innoviris?
1. Get in touch with the Facilitation team by email, briefly describing your project, its current stage of development, and your objectives (max. 10 lines).
We will then propose a 30-minute discussion to review your idea together, assess its compatibility with Innoviris support schemes, and, if relevant, present the most suitable programs.
2. If the initial contact is positive, you will be invited to complete the Test Your Idea form, available here, and submit it via the Irisbox platform as well as by email.
Please respect the maximum length of 15 pages and focus on the key information needed to understand the project’s specific characteristics.
This step does not constitute an official funding application.
- Initial feedback:
Based on your form, we will send you initial feedback by email, identifying the project’s strengths as well as points that need clarification or further development. - Meeting (1 hour):
If necessary, a meeting of approximately one hour may be organized to discuss this feedback in detail, review the form together, and answer your questions. - Project proposal and funding application:
If you wish to proceed, you will be invited to draft and submit an official funding application under the identified program. - Evaluation of the proposal:
The proposal will then be evaluated by the advisors responsible for the relevant program, in accordance with the applicable eligibility and quality criteria.
