MUSA is launching Next Generation SME, a tangible recognition dedicated to small and medium-sized enterprises that, in the last three years, have implemented innovative projects contributing to the region’s sustainable transition.
The call for applications, funded as part of the PNRR – Mission 4, Component 2, Investment 1.5, was created to promote and support businesses that have successfully integrated an environmentally and socially conscious vision into their organizational, managerial, product, or service processes.
Six winning companies will be selected, one for each of the thematic areas on which MUSA has focused its work during its first three years of activity:
- Urban Regeneration
- Big and Open Data for Life Sciences
- Entrepreneurship and Technology Transfer
- Sustainable Finance
- Sustainable Fashion, Luxury, and Design
- Sustainable and Inclusive Societies
Each awarded SME will receive a non-repayable grant of 25,000 Euros as recognition of the value and impact of their initiatives.
Applications must be submitted by October 15, 2025, by filling out the dedicated form available at the following link.
The winning companies will be announced during the final event of the project’s first phase, scheduled to take place in Milan on December 3 and 4, 2025, for which we will soon publish more information.
With this award, MUSA aims to highlight the best entrepreneurial experiences in Lombardy and foster the growth of a regional innovation ecosystem capable of integrating economic development, sustainability, and social inclusion.
