In addition, indi‐ vidual and unstructured group interviews were conducted, and the method of analysis and logical construction was used.Results – The revealed features of the EU project selection process and the identified possibilities of its adaptation in the area of public procurement for innovations confirm its usefulness as a tool to stimulate sustainable development.Originality/value/implications/recommendations – The study presents an original ap‐ proach to the evaluation of the selection procedure for projects financed from EU funds, which is carried out to be verified in terms of usefulness in other projects.
