RSFF also supports European Research Initiatives, including Research Infrastructures, European Technology Platforms, Joint Technology Initiatives or projects undertaken under Eureka.
The scope of eligible activities is wide and extends from traditional "bricks and mortar" investments to equipment and soft investments such as R&D operating cost, salaries of researchers, management and support staff, utilities, consumables, IPR acquisition or protection costs and, under certain conditions, leasing and depreciation.
To be financed by the EIB, projects need to be technically, economically, financially and environmentally feasible according to the Bank's project evaluation criteria.
