Call for Entrepreneurs (The Collider)
Who can apply: Entrepreneurs interested in joining a deep-tech spin-off from a university or top-tier research center.
Fundació Barcelona Mobile World Capital Foundation supports projects that advance the digital transformation of society, especially where technology has a clear public-interest or commercialization pathway. Its grantmaking blends deep-tech venture building with open-innovation calls in education and media literacy, often convening universities, corporations, and civic organizations around pilot programs and expert networks. It appears to favor initiatives that can be tested in real-world settings in Spain or Catalonia and then scaled across Europe or internationally.
Program-based, application-driven support with rolling or deadline-based calls; grants are relatively targeted, including fixed-award pilot funding and venture-building support that combines mentorship, advisory services, and access to partners rather than only cash.
Watch the foundation’s program pages for open calls rather than a general grants portal. Competitive opportunities include rolling deep-tech calls and fixed-window pilots such as mSchools Lab, so applicants should align closely with the announced thematic brief, geography, and implementation requirements in Catalonia/Spain or the broader EU context.
