RESIST II – Convocatoria abierta para la innovación de procesos 2026
The Process Innovation Open Call aims to support European SMEs operating in the Mobility, Transport and Automotive ecosystem in developing new or significantly improved processes, operational practices, or production systems that enhance digital and environmental performance, thereby strengthening their resilience and competitiveness.
The Process Innovation Open Call aims to support European Small and Medium-sized Enterprises operating in the Mobility, Transport and Automotive ecosystem in developing or significantly improving their processes, operational methods, and production systems with the aim of improving environmental performance, lowering carbon emissions, increasing resource efficiency and/or reducing dependencies on critical raw materials across the mobility value chain.
The Open call will give priority to innovative projects aligned with the following key pillars:
- Net-Zero Manufacturing & Industrial Decarbonisation (such as electric drivetrain components, hydrogen mobility technologies, smart charging systems, energy-efficient vehicle subsystem, etc.)
- Circular Critical Raw Materials & Resource Efficiency (such as CRM-efficient electric motors, design-for-recycling vehicle components, second-life battery products, circular mobility services, etc.)
- Digital Mobility & Smart Industrial Systems (such as Digital fleet management platforms, predictive maintenance services, digital product passports, mobility data analytics tools, etc.)
- Resilient Mobility Value Chains (such as CRM traceability platforms, supply-chain monitoring solutions, mobility component marketplaces, adaptive logistics services, etc.)
Selected projects are expected to achieve measurable results within a 9 months implementation period and will benefit from:
- Funding of up to 20,000€ for individual projects and 30,000€/SME for consortium projects
(with a financial rate of 90% of the total budget).
- Supporting services (including technical assistance, training courses, access to our pool of experts and internationalisation opportunities in third countries)
