How to obtain EU funds for your company?

Obtaining support from EU funds is not just about filling in an application. Often it is the preparation, timing and the ability to avoid unnecessary mistakes that decide. This is precisely what the practical seminar with the experienced expert Vladislav Novák was about, which we prepared in cooperation with the company Partneri pre rozvoj firiem – for everyone who wants to know how to go about it.

What did the participants learn?

• What types of projects can be financed – from the purchase of technologies, through research and development, to energy savings, recycling, agriculture or education.
• Who has the greatest chance of obtaining support – especially small and medium-sized companies in central and eastern Slovakia, where the rate of support reaches up to 60–85%.
• How the entire process of drawing on EU funds proceeds – from the selection of the call to the sustainability of the project after its completion.
• What mistakes entrepreneurs make most often – unsettled property, liabilities towards the state, changes in the project without approval, or faulty procurement.

What attracted the most attention

• Examples of specific successful projects – how companies from various sectors obtained hundreds of thousands to millions of euros and moved forward both technologically and commercially.
• Practical recommendations for preparing the application – why it pays to plan in advance, how to verify the company's eligibility, and when is the ideal time to start.
• An overview of current and planned calls – for example the Green for Businesses call, calls for research and development, or employee training with up to 100% support.
