German federal quantum technologies funding programme

Framework programme with a multi-billion euro envelope, delivered through themed Bekanntmachungen (calls) on quantum computing, quantum sensing, quantum communication and enabling technologies. Per-project funding rates for companies are typically 25-50% for SMEs under state aid rules.

You must co-fund 50%.

Deadline: annual_call — Individual calls (Bekanntmachungen) are published throughout the year, each with its own sketch (Skizze) deadline.

This funder does not publish a success rate. We rank it using the rate observed across similar programmes and label it as an estimate rather than implying we know.

Quick — mostly identity and bank details.

You fund 50% yourself.
