Business development aid
The catalogue indicates a grant of 20% of eligible costs, with a cap that depends on the business’s age: €3,000 for businesses less than three years old and €6,000 for older ones. It mentions separate cost thresholds and the exclusion of certain activities and costs. The public page and the rules in force must confirm these parameters.
The Sud-Avesnois community of municipalities supports investment by local very small businesses through a development support scheme. The Sud Avesnois Invest agency’s page presents access to the aid and concrete examples of equipment investments supported. The conditions must be confirmed with the economic department before applying.
