- Who grants the financial support to new entrepreneurs? »
The European Union foresees financial assistance for new entrepreneurs, which contributes to travel costs to and from the country of the stay and covers subsistence costs during the visit. This financial assistance is paid by the new entrepreneur's intermediary organisation and its amount is subject to the signed financial agreement between both parties.
The funding is based on payment of monthly lump sums to the entrepreneur in line with the maximum amount for the relevant country of the exchange (here) and the actual period that the new entrepreneur spends abroad collaborating with the host entrepreneur.
Further information about the monthly financial assistance is available in the section "Who can participate".
