Emergys Bretagne Incubator
The programme is run by Brittany’s seven technopoles and co-funded by the Brittany Region and the State. Financial support is capped at €10,000 for a project presented to a local committee and €25,000 to a regional committee. Feasibility studies can be funded at up to 80% of external costs, half as a grant and half as a repayable advance; certain training can be covered at up to 100% of external costs. Entry is through a technopole and selection by committee.
Emergys Bretagne supports innovative project holders and young businesses in turning an idea into a structured entrepreneurial project. For up to two years, a technopole helps consolidate the business plan, the team, the commercial strategy, intellectual property and the search for partners or funding. The scheme can also contribute to certain training and feasibility studies: the support itself is an essential part of the aid.
