The Ministry of Digital Transformation announced the expansion of the Brave1 cluster grant program. The updated Brave1 grant program covers 70 technological areas in nine categories - from electronic warfare and attack drones to unmanned boats and missiles.
Developers can independently choose the amount of funding — from 500,000 to 8 million UAH, depending on the readiness of the product. The time for considering applications has been halved — to one and a half months, in order to transfer technologies to the front faster.
