Startuolis

Startuolis 2026 sits under Innovation Agency Lithuania as a grant for the institutions that build startup capacity in Central and Western Lithuania. It is aimed at science and technology parks, business incubators, open-access centers, and business information centers, not at startups seeking direct project capital. The call pool was EUR 5,000,000. Eligible applicants were legal entities that provide public services for technology development and innovation promotion, and the agency itself could also participate. Supported work included creating conditions for startup development and acceleration, including hackathon-style product idea development and incubation services. The program excluded the Capital and Vilnius region and was delivered through EU Cohesion Funds. The clearest fit is an organization that can prove it is building the regional startup support stack rather than running a company-level venture project. Strong applicants will have a service role, a regional mandate, and a program design that turns public funding into startup-facing infrastructure. The offer is about ecosystem capacity, so delivery and reach matter more than a single company outcome.
