Through the WiFi4EU program,The European Commission provides free Wi-Fi access for citizens and visitors to public places,such as parks, squares, public buildings, libraries, health centers and museums, everywhere in Europe.
The goal of the program is to support the installation of modern Wi-Fi equipment in social life centers, with a budget of 120 million euros for the period 2018-2020.
Like all municipalities in the country, the same way the municipalities of the South Aegean Region have the opportunity to apply for funding of € 15,000 for the installation of Wi-Fi equipment in public places within their limits, where there are no longer free Wi-Fi wireless connections.
WiFi4EU coupons will cover the costs of equipment and installation of wireless internet access points, while the municipalities that will receive funding are committed to covering the connection costs (subscription for the provision of high-quality online service, donation and maintenance) and maintenance of equipment Wi-Fi connectivity for at least 3 years.
WiFi4EU coupons can also be used to partially finance a higher value project or to purchase new or upgrade old equipment and replace it with modern and available equipment on the market.
Beneficiaries will be selected in order of priority and all Member States will be able to receive a minimum number of coupons.
Submission of applications from 03/06/2020 (time 13:00 - summer time of Central Europe) until 04/06/2020 (time 17:00 - summer time of Central Europe).
