It suits you if…

  • You are a company, an association or a foundation.
  • Your project strengthens jobs, income or local production.
  • Your project covers training, sustainable farming or green technology.
  • You can cover the part of the costs that the grant does not pay.

It is not for you if…

  • Your project supports weapons or ammunition, directly or indirectly.
  • Your project makes or trades dangerous goods or substances harmful to the environment.

How much you can get

The funding is a grant. It covers up to 50% of the costs, with a ceiling of €300,000. Example: If you spend €300,000, you receive €150,000 and pay €150,000 yourself. Example: If you spend €600,000, you receive €300,000 and pay €300,000 yourself. The de minimis rules apply: small aid with a three-year ceiling. The call does not state whether you must contribute your own share or whether an advance is available. Ask the funding body before you draw up the budget.

  • If you spend €300,000, you receive €150,000 and pay €150,000 yourself.
  • If you spend €600,000, you receive €300,000 and pay €300,000 yourself.

Mistakes that cost you the money

  • You start works or purchases before you apply. Consequence: You may lose the funding for those costs.
  • You do not check the de minimis aid you have received. Consequence: The ceiling may be exceeded and the funding lost.
  • You do not plan how to cover your own share. Consequence: You may not be able to finance the whole project.
  • You do not keep invoices and proof of payment. Consequence: Without proof, the money is not paid out.
