AID Programme · Capacity sharing

Contribute to the AID Programme

AID is a capacity-sharing platform, not a funding programme. Contributions are in-kind services only — APIs, cloud credits, AI platforms, licences, technical experts, training programmes. No cash. Every contribution is screened before it is accepted.

Why contribute?

Instead of spending €1M on advertising to enter a market, spend €1M on your product reaching real users in that market.

Market entry — a door into a new country without a local office.
A reference customer — a ministry you can cite from your first deployment.
A distributor — the public body spreads your product across its ecosystem.
A tender you can win — deployment history positions you for future procurement.
A stronger FAIR score — a real deployment record strengthens a later FAIR certification application.
Real users for testing — many companies build good agricultural AI but never reach an actual farmer. This gets you there.

Before you continue. AIFOD does not accept contributions in exchange for speaking slots, agenda influence, endorsement or any commercial advantage. Contributions carrying such conditions are refused. If your organisation requires any of these, please do not submit this form.

Ethics & independence declaration
Any unchecked item in the first three lines routes the pledge to the Ethics Panel rather than to acceptance. Nothing is refused automatically and nothing is accepted automatically.
