The Digitális Megújulás Operatív Program Plusz (DIMOP Plusz), co‑financed by the European Union, will provide a total of HUF 30.7 billion in non‑repayable support to Hungarian micro‑ and small enterprises for digital development projects, the Ministry of Science and Technology announced.
More than 3,300 businesses will benefit from the two calls. Each winning company may receive between HUF 3 million and HUF 12 million for IT investments, with funding intensity up to 90 percent.
Geographic allocation and beneficiaries
The funding is allocated by geography: under the call for companies outside Budapest, 3,100 firms will receive a combined HUF 28.7 billion. More than two hundred Budapest‑based micro and small enterprises will obtain nearly HUF 2 billion in total.
Eligible uses of the grant
Supported companies can use the grant for:
- purchasing modern computers and IT equipment,
- launching websites and online stores,
- implementing enterprise resource planning systems,
- deploying customer relationship management (CRM), cloud‑based and cybersecurity solutions.
The scheme also allows digitally less advanced firms to adopt artificial intelligence‑based solutions. Training and consultancy costs directly related to the investments are also eligible.
Performance requirement
A basic condition of the programme is that participating companies demonstrably achieve a higher level of digital maturity as a result of the investments.
Next steps announced by the ministry
Tanács Zoltán, Minister of Science and Technology, said that the ministry will present a larger‑scale and more comprehensive SME digitalisation strategy in the near future.
