Cybersecurity, vouchers for SMEs and self-employed: how to apply and how much you can ask for

The Italian Ministry of Enterprises has launched a voucher scheme for cloud and cybersecurity services, with 150 million euros from the Development and Cohesion Fund available for micro, small and medium-sized enterprises and self-employed professionals. The scheme, open from November 10, offers a grant covering 50% of expenses, up to 20,000 euros, for plans worth at least 4,000 euros.

Beneficiaries must have a 30 Mbps internet connection and purchase services from approved providers, with eligible expenses including new or upgraded software, cloud services, and configuration and support. Applications can be submitted online until January 20, 2027, and will be processed by the ministry with Invitalia within 60 days.
