The catalogue indicates a zero-rate loan, paid in one or more instalments, without a guarantee, which may represent up to 25% of eligible costs within the applicable caps and rules.

Impulsion Développement supports Normandy businesses preparing a structuring creation or development operation. The aid takes the form of a zero-rate loan to complement the project’s funding, without a guarantee under the conditions described by the Region. It is aimed at investments large enough to have an effect on activity, employment or production capacity; it is not a short-term cash loan.
