Cascade Funding

Also known as Financial Support to Third Parties (FSTP). A mechanism where EU-funded projects redistribute a portion of their grant budget to SMEs and startups through open calls. Typical amounts range from €50K to €200K, with simplified application processes and faster evaluation timelines than direct EU calls.
