Chairman Kang Seok-jin: "Carbon Technology Commercialization, an Innovative Field Creating New Added Value"
Recruitment of Companies for the Carbon Neutral Commercialization Support Project
Support for SMEs Possessing Innovative Carbon-Neutral Technologies
Up to 600 Million KRW Provided for Demonstration and Commercialization
Applications Accepted Online from the 10th to the 21st
The Small and Medium Business Corporation announced on the 6th that it is recruiting companies to participate in the 'Carbon Neutral Commercialization Support Project,' which supports companies with excellent technologies in the carbon neutrality field, including climate tech.
The 'Carbon Neutral Commercialization Support Project' is a new initiative launched this year by the Ministry of SMEs and Startups. It focuses on supporting small and medium enterprises (SMEs) possessing carbon-neutral technologies that require large-scale funding for commercialization and demonstration compared to other fields, to promote the dissemination and expansion of innovative technologies.
The support targets SMEs with innovative technologies related to carbon neutrality and is divided into two categories: commercialization and demonstration. Companies applying in each category will be finally selected through document screening, on-site evaluation, and presentation assessment.
Specifically, the 'commercialization' category requires companies to own core carbon-neutral technology rights such as patents or have successful government research and development (R&D) evaluations, aiming to commercialize their technologies. The 'demonstration' category targets companies with purchase condition commitment letters or similar, which have high feasibility for technology verification and commercialization. For commercialization, up to 200 million KRW per company will be supported for consulting, product improvement, certification, and verification. For demonstration, up to 600 million KRW per company will be provided for facility construction and performance verification.
Companies wishing to participate in the Carbon Neutral Commercialization Support Project can apply online through the KOSME ESG Integrated Platform from the 10th to the 21st.
