INBRAIN Neuroelectronics reported that the Spanish Ministry of Industry and Tourism has given the company a €4 million grant under the PERTE Chip project. The grant will help INBRAIN expedite the development of brain-computer interface technology, which combines cognitive computers and graphene-based materials to decode and control real-time brain activity for therapeutic applications.
On May 5, 2025, the Ministry provisionally allocated €53.2 million to support 37 breakthrough initiatives across 11 autonomous communities. INBRAIN’s project was chosen among numerous for its high impact potential in fields such as disruptive materials, semiconductor manufacturing, cybersecurity, and AI-based computing tools.
INBRAIN’s technology platform employs graphene neural interfaces to provide ultra-precise, adaptive, and biocompatible neuromodulation for a variety of illnesses, including Parkinson’s disease, stroke rehabilitation, epilepsy, and other neuropsychiatric disorders.
The PERTE Chip initiative – “Strategic Project for Economic Recovery and Transformation of Microelectronics and Semiconductors” – seeks to strengthen the design and production capabilities of Spain’s microelectronics and semiconductor industries in a comprehensive manner, while also promoting strategic technological autonomy for both Spain and the European Union.
Leadership Comments
“We are honored to receive this national support as part of Spain’s effort to lead in cutting-edge neurotechnology,” said Carolina Aguilar, CEO and Co-Founder of INBRAIN Neuroelectronics. “This grant will enable us to accelerate our mission to develop precision neurotechnologies that can transform the treatment of neurological diseases, while also helping to position Spain at the forefront of deep tech innovation in healthcare.”
“INBRAIN Neuroelectronics represents exactly the kind of cutting-edge innovation we aim to support from the Government of Catalonia,” said Mr Miquel Sàmper, regional Minister of Business and Labor. “By combining advanced materials like graphene and neurotechnology, INBRAIN is not only pushing the boundaries of healthcare innovation, but also strengthening Catalan, Spain and Europe’s leadership in strategic deep tech sectors. Supporting projects like this is essential to building the country’s technological autonomy and long-term competitiveness in the medtech industry.”
