The AMable fourth open call is granting money for SMEs in the additive manufacturing field. AMable is the European Commission initiative to enable new additive manufacturing technologies, spawning the birth of new products that generate new business models while saving production time, cost and waste, organizers say. In other words, the goal is to democratize the access to the newest technologies to companies that otherwise would not be able to afford such services.

The applying SMEs have two options. Proposing "Feasibility Studies" and "Best Practice Experiments", both with the possibility to raise financial aid for each experiment. 

This effort is supported by the European Commission initiative, I4MS, as part of the mission to encourage the implementation of ICT technologies in Europe to enhance the competitiveness of the EU industrial SMEs in the global scenario.
