Knowledge Economy with AI Application (Economía del Conocimiento con aplicación de IA)

Economía del Conocimiento con aplicación de IA sits under the same federal agency and targets Argentina's knowledge economy. It funds Public-Private Technological-Productive Consortia and Private Technological-Productive Consortia that are building AI and data-science solutions, so the program is aimed at applied use rather than speculative research. The line is designed to push AI into productive sectors where collaboration and adoption can be demonstrated. The award is a non-reimbursable contribution covering up to 80% of project cost, with a 20% counterpart requirement and a ceiling of USD 500,000 equivalent. Public-Private consortia must include at least one National Public Sector entity that promotes technological development or innovation; private consortia must include at least one company active in Knowledge Economy sectors with an AI application. Applications go through the Registro de Potenciales Beneficiarios and the Trámites a Distancia platform. This route fits consortia that can show a real implementation path, not just an AI concept. The strongest cases will combine a public anchor or a sector-active company with a specific problem, a delivery plan, and enough counterpart funding to match the agency's structure. In practice, the program rewards teams that can make the public-private split operational and keep the work tied to Argentina's knowledge-economy base.
