- Seeking project proposals between 5,000 and 50,000 euros.
- A human centric Next Generation Internet shall reflect the openness, diversity and the inclusion that are at the core of European values. The overall mission of the Next Generation Internet initiative is to re-imagine and re-engineer the internet for the third millennium and beyond to shape a value-centric, human and inclusive society for all. How we share and retrieve information is an essential part of that equation.

However if the project is of exceptional quality and the proposer holds unique technical expertise proposals from outside of those geographic areas can be eligible as well — under the condition that there is a clear European dimension.
- Projects should be in line with the NGI vision and the sub-granting call applied for
- should have research and development as their primary objective
- should satisfy any other hard eligibility criteria specific to the sub-granting call, such as having a clear European Dimension.
- You can apply as an individual, or as a formal or informal organisation of any type. Or even a collaboration of the two.
