VendueTech Joins the Eurostars Programme: A New Chapter Begins 🚀

We are thrilled to share some incredible news: VendueTech has been accepted into the Eurostars funding programme! 🎉

This isn’t just another milestone — it’s a transformative step forward. The Eurostars programme is Europe’s flagship initiative supporting innovative SMEs that push boundaries. Co-funded by the European Union through Horizon Europe, along with national and bilateral partners, it empowers startups like ours to bring bold ideas to life on a global stage.

Our approved project — “Bidsale: A Next-Generation AI-Powered SaaS Platform for Distressed Property Auctions” (E! 8363) — will fundamentally reshape how real estate auctions are conducted. Our vision is clear: create a platform where artificial intelligence, transparency, and trust drive the auction process, making real estate investment more democratic, accessible, and efficient than ever before.


Why This Matters 🌍

Being Eurostars-labeled is far more than just funding. It represents:

  • A stamp of quality from Europe’s toughest innovation evaluators,
  • A commitment to cross-border collaboration,
  • And a recognition that our mission has the potential to create real market impact.

Through Eurostars, VendueTech will be able to:

  • Accelerate our R&D efforts to refine Bidsale,
  • Deepen partnerships with academic and industry collaborators across Europe,
  • Ensure alignment with global standards of reporting and transparency,
  • And deliver a product that connects investors and property opportunities with speed, clarity, and fairness.

Project at a Glance 💶

Our Eurostars project is not just about vision — it’s backed by solid financial planning and co-funding support:

  • Total project value (all partners): €1,067,448.50
  • Croatian partner share (VendueTech): €332,460.00
  • Funding approved from Eurostars via HAMAG-BICRO: €199,476.00
  • VendueTech’s own contribution: €132,984.00
  • Funding ratio: 60% Eurostars : 40% own resources

This balanced model ensures both public support and private commitment, showing that we are fully invested in delivering real impact.


Our Slovenian Partners 🇸🇮

International collaboration is at the heart of Eurostars, and we’re proud to have two outstanding partners from Slovenia joining us on this journey:

  • SRC – Slovenia’s leading provider of secure, enterprise-grade IT infrastructure, software, and cloud solutions. Their expertise in building robust and compliant systems makes them a perfect fit for VendueTech’s mission to create a trustworthy, resilient auction platform.
  • Monolit – Experts in geospatial and location-based data, mapping, and GIS-driven applications. With their capabilities, Bidsale will deliver accurate, dynamic maps and location insights, helping investors better understand property opportunities in context.

Together, these collaborations strengthen our project with technical depth and cross-border innovation power.


A Team Effort 💡

Behind this success is our incredible team and the partners who share our belief that real estate auctions don’t have to be complex, opaque, or exclusive.

Starting September 2025, our 24-month project officially begins. We’ll work toward clear milestones, deliverables, and market impact goals — all under the watchful eye of Eurostars evaluators and HAMAG-BICRO.

This isn’t just about building software. It’s about reshaping an industry.


Join Us on the Journey 🚀

We’re building more than a platform — we’re building a movement. And we’re opening our doors to new collaborators worldwide.

If you’re passionate about AI, real estate, product design, or building disruptive technology, this is your chance to make a real impact.

We offer a 100% equity-based compensation model, aligning your success directly with ours. Together, we can shape the future of real estate auctions.
