FCI4Africa's Open Call 2 invites innovation hubs to apply for grants of up to €50,000 (from a €200,000 pool) to deliver online training, mentoring and acceleration services to food-innovation sub-projects previously selected under Open Call 1. Applications are lodged via the opencalls.fund platform, which lists the window as 1 April – 31 May 2027, with implementation running October 2027 to June 2028.
Submissions are reviewed on a rolling basis against the criteria below. SAIGE captures your intent to apply — linking this opportunity to your business profile — before handing you off to FCI4Africa project consortium (contact partner: International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA), Tanzania office)’s official application. This keeps your activity in one place and helps us surface better matches over time.
