Support and funding for 3D printing projects - Be better prepared for the future

   In Danish
Get help finding and applying for grants so you can develop and implement 3D printing with reduced risk. 

Many companies see the potential in 3D printing and additive manufacturing but hesitate to invest. The technology is new, the results are uncertain, and there is a lack of resources to test it in practice. At the same time, there are a number of public and private funding schemes that can reduce financial risk – but finding the right schemes and preparing an application that gets approved requires time and experience. 

Danish Technological Institute helps you identify relevant funding opportunities and prepare project applications, so you can get started with 3D printing without bearing the entire investment yourself. 

How can Danish Technological Institute help you? 

• Mapping funding opportunities: Screening relevant national and international grant schemes that match your project and ambition 
• Project maturation: Help defining and scoping the project so it has the right profile relative to the requirements of the relevant funding schemes 
• Application preparation: Preparation of project description, budget, and other documentation for the application 
• Consortium building: Help assembling project partnerships where this is required or advantageous 
• Professional sparring: Technical advice on 3D printing as the foundation for a realistic and well-described project

Why apply for funding for 3D printing projects? 

Public and private funding schemes allow companies to explore and test additive manufacturing with reduced financial risk. This could, for example, involve: 

• Development of new products or components using 3D printing 
• Testing a new AM technology in your production 
• Building internal knowledge and competence within additive manufacturing 

With grants, you can test the potential of the technology without the entire investment resting on your own budget.

We know both the technology and the funding landscape 

Danish Technological Institute combines deep technical knowledge of 3D printing and additive manufacturing with broad experience in applying for and executing funded development projects. This means we can help you with both the technical substance and the formal application process – from idea to approved project.

Should we help you find funding for your 3D printing project?
