MUR PNRR Ecosystems for Innovation

MUR PNRR Ecosystems for Innovation funds regional innovation ecosystems under Investment 1.5 of Mission 4, Component 2. It is the territorial counterpart to the larger national-centre and extended-partnership instruments, with a strong emphasis on local coordination, sustainability, and knowledge transfer. The program is framed around regional ecosystems rather than a single national hub. The grant is Italy-based, consortium participation is required, and the extracted award band runs from about €7.52 million to €15.51 million. The call runs annually, and the program is built for regional networks and the examples named in the record include NODES Piemonte, iNEST Veneto, and ETHOS Sardegna. The wider policy page places the scheme among the PNRR measures for universities, research centres, companies, and public bodies. The fit is strongest where an applicant can show territorial concentration, credible industrial participation, and a practical path from research to regional deployment. This is not a narrow lab grant; it rewards networks that can organize local actors and keep the transfer plan visible from the start. Regions with a defined innovation identity and a working partnership structure are the natural home for this route.
