Maybe you already have an idea in your company of something that could be done more efficiently. Or perhaps you just sense that change is needed but aren\u2019t sure what exactly. You might even think that innovation is only for large companies with laboratories and R&D teams. But it\u2019s quite the opposite. “At Brain4Industry, we are here even for those who don\u2019t yet know exactly what they want to change. And most importantly \u2013 with us, you can do it simply and for a reasonable price. Thanks to de minimis support, you can access our services with minimal costs and without lengthy paperwork<\/strong><\/em>,” says Jan Hrdli\u010dka, Project Manager of the EDIH BRain4Industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So even if I don\u2019t have a concrete plan, I can still contact you?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

Absolutely. You don\u2019t need a clear vision or detailed assignment. All you need is the willingness to improve something. Tell us how your company operates, what challenges you face, and what could work better \u2013 and we\u2019ll help you find a concrete solution. Whether it\u2019s a new product, more efficient production, or automating routine tasks with the help of AI.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

And how does de minimis fit into this?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s a way to cover part of the costs of provided services from public funds \u2013 specifically through the EDIH (European Digital Innovation Hubs) program and the Brain4Industry Innovation Centre in Doln\u00ed B\u0159e\u017eany, which we are involved in as a research institution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlike traditional subsidies, companies don\u2019t have to fill out complicated applications, wait months for a decision, or prepare lengthy reports. We simply sign a short agreement together, the client adds a declaration of honor, and we handle the entry into the de minimis register ourselves. The whole process takes just a few days, allowing the company to start working with us almost immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What services can de minimis be used for?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For all the services we offer that help companies innovate. From designing a new product, improving an existing technology, and digitizing processes, to expert consulting and training. Companies can also come to us to try 3D printing their own products \u2013 whether prototypes or small series \u2013 and de minimis funding can be applied here as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Which companies is this suitable for?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The main rule is not to exceed the support limit over the last three fiscal years, which is \u20ac300,000 (about CZK 7.5 million). If the company or related entities \u2013 such as sister or subsidiary companies \u2013 have already received support in other ways (e.g., through other projects or grants), that\u2019s fine; it just needs to be added up and checked that the limit is not exceeded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How does it work in practice?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You contact us \u2013 ideally with an idea or problem you\u2019re addressing. We\u2019ll look at what we can do, whether de minimis can be applied, and in what amount. Usually, the amounts involved don\u2019t limit the companies in any way. We prepare the contract, guide you through the process, and take care of most of the paperwork. We explain everything clearly so you know what, when, and why things are being done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

Since 2023, we have worked with most of our clients under the de minimis support scheme. This allows us to offer our services at a discount \u2013 usually around 50% compared to the full price. For services within the EDIH project, the total support for the company is even higher thanks to direct EU funding.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

What are the benefits?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • Fast arrangements \u2013 no unnecessary waiting.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Cost savings \u2013 part of the expenses is covered by the support.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • No grant applications \u2013 we\u2019ve already handled the complex stuff.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • You can try working with us and testing technologies you don\u2019t normally have access to.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • And if it works well, we can continue with a bigger project.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    I want this too \u2013 what should I do?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Certainly. For example, with Ergona Opava, we developed a new orthosis for patients with hand spasticity \u2013 it\u2019s lighter, cheaper, and faster to produce thanks to 3D printing. Everything was developed in-house and tailored to the company\u2019s needs. Or we helped Speed Lease, which operates SIXT car rentals in the Czech Republic, with the digitalization of their business processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Chci to taky \u2013 co m\u00e1m ud\u011blat?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Just contact us. Together we\u2019ll look at whether your request can be addressed through de minimis and propose a concrete plan. You can find our contacts on our website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
