Chemport is not a funding body. We act as a connector, guide and strategic partner to help you secure external funding and investment through the right channels.
However, we do offer companies the opportunity each year to apply for the Chemport Catalyser, our co-financing instrument to accelerate innovation projects.

Chemport Europe is not a traditional business consultant. We do not provide generic or purely commercial advisory services. Instead, we work from an ecosystem perspective.
Our focus is fully dedicated to circular and green chemistry. This means we understand the technical, market and value chain challenges specific to this sector.
We are also deeply embedded in the regional infrastructure. Our support is directly linked to the opportunities available in the Northern Netherlands: industrial clusters, knowledge institutions, pilot facilities, logistics and energy infrastructure. This gives you immediate access to a powerful ecosystem.
We do not just offer advice — we create concrete connections: to companies, researchers, governments, investment partners and facilities.
