A local economic grant scheme

The Communauté de communes du Grand Saint-Émilionnais offers economic grants to businesses and project leaders in its area. The schemes are organized around major objectives: energy transition, innovation and digital transformation, business creation/takeover/succession, short supply chains, seasonal and tourist accommodation, health, and business real estate. Grants are subject to the regulation and available funding.

Why check the scheme before applying?

The Capital OS catalog entries list nine grants associated with funder ID 2171. The community's official page presents a broader overview, including in particular grants related to local food supply chains and agricultural creation/takeover that do not appear in these nine entries. It is therefore necessary to distinguish the scope of this batch from the authority's full catalog.

Energy transition and real estate

The listed schemes can support certain real estate investments, energy renovation and the energy competitiveness of micro-businesses. The scope is specific: depending on the grant, the business may need to own its building, be located outside a central area defined by the commercial development plan, and comply with tax, social and regulatory conditions. Rates and caps must be confirmed in the current entry.

Digital innovation and health

Two separate grants concern digital innovation: one targets businesses with fewer than ten employees under industrial NAF codes related to robotics and can support the purchase of robotic equipment or patent filing; the other supports shared digital innovation and collaborative practice projects led by healthcare professionals in the area, in connection with the ARS (regional health agency).

Creation, takeover and accommodation

The schemes for micro-business creation or takeover and for modernization after a takeover target professional investments, with job creation or retention required for creation/takeover. Grants for seasonal accommodation and social tourism target facilities meeting specific accommodation needs and ownership and status criteria.

Application steps

1. Define the project, expenses and timeline. 2. Check the establishment's location and sector-specific criteria. 3. Download the form, the regulation and the commitment charter from the community of municipalities' website. 4. Prepare quotes, the financing plan, registration documents, financial information and, depending on the scheme, energy audits or sector-specific documents. 5. Request written confirmation of eligibility and the authorized date for incurring expenses.

Do not incur expenses without confirmation

Local public grants may require a prior application and a decision before work begins or equipment is ordered. Do not sign quotes or start incurring expenses until the applicable regulation and the authority's approval have been confirmed in writing.

Institutional contact

The official economic grants page lists the contact deveco@grand-st-emilionnais.org and the economic development department's details. Ask for the current form, the regulation for the grant in question, the deadlines, and the level of funding still available.

Are the grants still open?

Some France Num entries indicate a closing date of December 1, 2027, but this information does not guarantee that funding is still available. The authority states that the award depends on its budgetary capacity and that it reserves the right not to grant aid.

Does the cap correspond to the amount automatically awarded?

No. It is a maximum, subject to the funding rate, the eligible expenses retained, compliance with the criteria, and the authority's decision.

Are all of the authority's grants included in this guide?

No. This batch covers the nine entries present in the master list for this funder. The institutional page describes other schemes; the catalog should be cross-checked against this list to complete coverage.

Check my eligibility for local grants

Capital OS helps identify schemes to review and prepare initial checks. Before applying, confirm with the economic development department the regulation in force, the closing date, available funding, eligible expenses, and the absence of premature commitment.

Verification status

Partial to good-level verification: nine grants from the master list identified and cross-checked against the institutional page and the public France Num / Aide Publique Entreprise entries. The official page also describes other schemes not included in this batch. Stacking rules, funding and dates must be confirmed with the authority.
