EU funding backs breakthrough deep technology
We are pleased to share that DEScycle has been selected in the latest EIC - European Innovation Council Accelerator round, securing €2.5 million in funding.
The EIC Accelerator backs breakthrough deep technology platforms with strong commercial and strategic relevance to Europe. The EIC Accelerator is one of the most competitive grant programs in Europe.
For DEScycle, this recognition reinforces our mission to build the next generation of metals processing infrastructure. Our distributed, modular platform offers a capital-efficient alternative to centralised smelting, enabling faster, repeatable scale directly at feedstock sources. By moving processing upstream, we turn domestic waste streams into resilient, sovereign metal supply.
We are grateful to the European Innovation Council for its support as we seek to scale distributed metals processing infrastructure across Europe.
