Who can apply
Beneficiaries indicated in the catalogue: owners of innovative projects facing regulatory obstacles. Area recorded: national aid. The company’s location, size, status and creation date may affect eligibility.
Eligibility conditions
Conditions recorded in the catalogue: If the ministries identify no legal obstacle, the company can obtain legal certainty, i.e. a guarantee that the project is feasible under existing law. A general and permanent change to the blocking legal framework, without an experiment, may also be considered if this appears to be the most appropriate solution.

What the scheme covers
Operations or costs mentioned in the catalogue: Temporary experiments to lift legislative or regulatory obstacles for innovative projects. When a project has benefited from an experiment, other similar projects can also benefit: an experiment decision is open to all innovative companies that apply and agree to follow its rules (the register of open experiments can be consulted on the DGE website). Derogations from standards issued by EU institutions, local authorities or an independent administrative authority are not covered. Have the eligible items and the date from which costs can be committed confirmed.
Amount and funding terms
Amount or form of support indicated in the catalogue: free support. The amount must be confirmed in the rules or with the operator; do not treat it as guaranteed.
