The Minister of Industry, Carolina Cosse said during the launch that will be specially selected those projects that achieve "associativity between different companies" and that are also SMEs.
A series of workshops are scheduled to begin on September 12 at the Center for Industrial Automation and Mechatronics (Caime), as well as participation in the "Fair of support tools for the ICT Industry".
"We are looking to open all channels of communication from the ministry to help companies understand what the challenge is so they can apply," he concluded.
When choosing the projects, the associativity, the character of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) and belonging to industrial parks, among other points, will be considered.
The prioritized sectors will be biotechnology, nanotechnology, electronics, audiovisual, design and software application to production processes, chemical, pharmaceutical, plastics, metalworking, naval, automotive and auto parts, forestry-woodworking, paper, leather footwear and leather goods, and value-added food.
Companies producing goods or industrial services related to the sectors prioritized at the time of each call; institutions or associations that provide support services to companies; and their public-private industrial articulation spaces may apply.
The reception of projects is already open, and the deadline will be extended until October 20th.
