    Grants and incentives

    Fund your AI project with public incentives

    Two active Italian schemes cover a large share of the cost of an AI project: a grant for established SMEs and a zero-interest loan for innovative startups. We help you work out which one applies and build the project the application has to describe.

    The two schemes

    Non-repayable grant

    Voucher Doppia Transizione

    Italian Chambers of Commerce

    A non-repayable grant from the Italian Chambers of Commerce for projects combining digital and energy transition. Artificial intelligence is an eligible technology, and so are the consulting and training needed to introduce it.

    What it typically covers

    • Specialist consulting to introduce digital technologies, AI included
    • Staff training on the technologies adopted
    • Technology services and solutions required by the project

    Who it is for

    Established, active SMEs registered with the Italian business register and up to date with the annual chamber fee.

    The requirement people underestimate

    The Selfi 4.0 digital self-assessment from your Chamber of Commerce must be completed before applying — it is often the step that costs companies time.

    Zero-interest loan

    Smart&Start Italia

    Invitalia

    A national scheme run by Invitalia for innovative startups: a zero-interest loan covering a significant share of the investment plan, with no personal guarantees. Applications are open on a rolling basis, with no submission windows.

    What it typically covers

    • Product or platform development, engineering work included
    • Services supporting the launch and growth of the company
    • Equipment, hardware and software needed to operate

    Who it is for

    Innovative startups listed in the dedicated section of the Italian business register, or teams incorporating as one within the required terms.

    The requirement people underestimate

    The business plan is assessed on its merits: technical soundness and economic sustainability matter, not the idea alone.

    The Neuronion package: assessment + funded project

    We do not just point you at a grant. We build the technical project the application has to describe — then we deliver it.

    1. 01

      Assessment

      We analyse your processes, data and existing systems and identify where AI produces a measurable return. We also guide you through Selfi 4.0 when the scheme requires it.

    2. 02

      Fundable project

      We turn the assessment into a technical project with objectives, architecture, timeline, costs and KPIs — the part that makes an application credible and that companies struggle to write alone.

    3. 03

      Delivery

      Once funding is granted we build what was designed — from MVP to production platform — staying your technical counterpart throughout.

    Amounts, coverage rates, requirements and application windows vary by scheme and, for the Voucher Doppia Transizione, by individual Chamber of Commerce. On the call we check together which scheme applies to your company and its current terms.

    Let's check which incentive you can access

    A 30-minute intro call, no commitment: we work out whether your project is fundable and under which scheme.
