Finance Helpdesk

The NEBULA Finance helpdesk aims at facilitating access to public and private funding for clusters from the built environment and their members.

On the one hand, NEBULA updates public calls for proposals for the construction sector on the Metabuilding Platform : click on the link below to be redirected to the calls that may be of interest for you!

On the other hands, NEBULA develops, together with the B4P Innovation Clusters (B4PIC), material that will facilitate your understanding of and access to funding funding, such as lists of private investors.
