Descripción

Within the framework of the Agenda España Digital 2026 and the "Plan de Digitalización de Pymes 2021-2025", Red.es continues with the creation and maintenance of the network of Acelera pyme Offices to provide advice to SMEs and the self-employed and help promoting technological demand.

Currently, the network of Acelera pyme Offices has a total of 85 offices located throughout the country, which have recently been joined by 57 Acelera pyme Offices in rural areas. All this, in order to support and promote the adoption of technologies by SMEs, self-employed and entrepreneurs in Spain.

However, 27 offices created in the first call will end their activities in the first half of 2023. For this reason, Red.es is launching a Second Call 2022, in order to provide continuity to the services provided by the SME Accelerator Offices throughout Spain. But what does this new call consist of? We'll tell you about it below!

 

Second Call 2022 for the creation of the Acelera pyme office network

The aim of this call is to select, on a competitive basis, the beneficiaries of the grants for the creation of the Acelera pyme Office Network within the Acelera pyme Programme to promote the adoption of technologies by SMEs, freelancers and entrepreneurs.

These offices will make one or more physical and virtual spaces available to them to raise awareness and provide support on the advantages and innovative methodologies to optimise the operation of their businesses. All this, through the incorporation of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in their processes, in order to improve their productivity.

Eligible projects submitted must include, among other actions:

1.            The implementation of the OAP.

2.           The generation, dissemination and enhancement of content associated with the adoption of technologies and processes.

3.           Group actions such as awareness-raising and support actions for SMEs on innovative methodologies and technologies, favouring their incorporation into their production and management processes (seminars, workshops, etc.).

4.           Advice and face-to-face support actions from the physical and virtual office in the main areas of digital transformation.

5.           Group actions to connect the technological offer with the existing demand (networking sessions).

 

What does the aid consist of?

The beneficiaries of these grants will receive a monetary subsidy to cover the eligible actions of their projects for the start-up and provision of services of the OAPs (SME Accelerator Offices) for a period of 24 months from the decision to grant the aid.

Amount of aid

The minimum amount of aid requested per project will be €300,000 and the maximum amount of aid requested will be €410,000, up to 80% of the budget being eligible. The beneficiary will co-finance the remaining percentage.
