SME Fund 2025 Launch – New Opportunities for Intellectual Property Protection!

Starting February 3, 2025, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) across the EU can benefit from financial support through the SME Fund. This European Union initiative aims to help businesses protect their intellectual property, fostering innovation, digitalization, and sustainable growth.

The SME Fund is a reimbursement program designed for companies looking to protect their trademarks, designs, patents and other forms of intellectual property (IP). Through various types of vouchers, businesses can receive partial reimbursement for registration fees and consulting services related to IP protection.

  • Financial support for trademark and design registration at national, regional and EU levels
  • Coverage of costs for patent protection and plant variety rights
  • Reimbursement for IP Scan – a diagnostic service assessing a company’s intellectual property potential
  • Enhancing business competitiveness and sustainability
  • Promoting innovation and digitalization
Impact of the SME Fund so far

Over the past four years, the program has supported more than 72,000 businesses across the EU, including 753 Bulgarian companies in 2024 alone, by providing financial aid for intellectual property protection.
