Eurostars is a well-established European R&D funding programme targeting innovative SMEs, operating under the EUREKA umbrella and the European Partnership on Innovative SMEs — it is highly relevant to Acme Corporation's focus on Semiconductors and AI, provided Acme qualifies as an SME or partners with one. Eligibility requires that the lead applicant be an R&D-performing SME, so if Acme is a larger company, it would need to participate as a partner rather than a lead. The programme supports transnational R&D projects across EUREKA member countries, which aligns well with Acme's target geographies (France, Ireland, Germany, Netherlands, etc.). However, this is a meta-programme page via Enterprise Ireland with no specific open call deadline identified, making it not immediately actionable. Acme should contact Enterprise Ireland's Eurostars National Contact Point to identify the next open cut-off date (Eurostars typically runs 2 calls per year) and confirm SME eligibility or consortium structure.
