prêt d'honneur — Douaisis Initiative Premier développement
The catalogue mentions an interest-free, unsecured loan of €5,000 to €50,000, repayable over a maximum of five years. The cap is set at half of the financing needs over three years and €5,000 per job created or maintained for three years. It targets companies created or taken over less than five years ago that have already received a first honour loan, ongoing or repaid.
After creation or takeover, a company may need additional financing to recruit, invest or absorb an increase in working capital requirements. The Douaisis Initiative Premier Développement honour loan is listed to support this first growth phase, particularly when the company has already received a first Initiative honour loan.
