The [seal] Program provides financial support to collaborative innovation projects in the field of digital trust and cybersecurity, involving at least two academic partners (EPFL, HEIG-VD, UNIL) and one implementation partner (company, non-profit organization, public administration) located in the canton of Vaud.

We support applied projects that have the potential for direct results and benefits for the economy and society of the canton of Vaud, such as the development and implementation of prototypes of technological solutions, innovative business tools or new approaches to professional practices that can be tested or directly applied by companies and/or other players. A typical project lasts between 6 and 12 months.

Project proposals may be submitted either in response to our thematic calls for projects, or on a freestanding basis on any other topic related to the field.

For further information, including eligibility criteria, requirements, and the submission and selection process, please refer to the specific regulations.
