The idea behind the project is to have companies going from a linear to a circular business model. This can be by looking into recyclable options, take back systems, re-selling platforms, mending services, switching to renewable and recycled materials etc.
They offer total financial funding, but to be approved, you must show dedication, scaleability and willingness to put in the required amount of work hours. Another important aspect is the involvement of management. They must be onboard and somehow involved in the process.
This is to ensure that your company is in fact willing to make the necessary changes.
