Role and financing services

CCI Puy-de-Dôme offers support dedicated to financing solutions, identifying public grants and putting together applications. Its official page notably lists a service to facilitate access to public financing, support for innovation financing, and tools for preventing difficulties. Needs may relate to an investment, hiring, innovation, international development or cash flow. The CCI does not replace the funder: eligibility, processing and the award decision rest with the body running the scheme. Specifically listed services: « Faciliter l’obtention de financements publics » (support with choosing financing and putting together the application; service listed from €500 excl. VAT), « Accédez aux financements de l’innovation » (regional, national and European solutions, a service advertised as offered and co-financed by the European Commission under Enterprise Europe Network), and « Comment va ma boîte ? » for an initial assessment of the company's health.

Defining the financing need

Define the need, the amount and the timeline: investment, innovation, hiring, energy transition, business development, export, business transfer or cash flow. Prepare quotes, recent accounts, the financial forecast, the financing plan and resources already available. Distinguish between a grant, a repayable advance, a loan, a guarantee, an equity contribution and an advisory service.

Checks before submission

Check the up-to-date rules, the opening and closing dates, the territory, the size and sector of the business, the eligible expenses, the caps, the combination with other grants and the requirements to maintain activity. Confirm whether the application must be submitted before the order or the start of expenses. The information in this page guides the search but does not constitute an eligibility decision.

Does the CCI award grants directly?

As a general rule, the CCI informs, advises and can help prepare the application. The award decision rests with the scheme's manager, unless a specific mechanism is expressly confirmed.

When should you contact the CCI?

As early as possible, before signing quotes or committing to expenses, in order to check the application and financing conditions.
