LEADER – Businesses and projects creating local added value
The catalogue links this action to creating local wealth and indicates a period running until 31 December 2027. The activities and costs supported cannot be reliably established without the exact action sheet.
A business project can create local value by developing an activity, consolidating a supply chain, using the area’s resources or generating jobs. This action sheet targets economic initiatives whose benefits go to the rural area concerned, but the relevant LAG must be identified before the rules can be confirmed.

Who can apply
The catalogue describes an economic target, but the full list of beneficiaries must be checked. The project’s address, the size of the company, the sector and legal status may determine eligibility.
Eligibility conditions
The LAG must be identified first; then check the area, economic objectives, eligible costs, co-financing rules and exclusions. The programming period does not guarantee that funds are open.
What the scheme covers
Operations may involve business development, innovation, services, productive investment or local supply chains, but each item must be confirmed in the official action sheet.
Amount and funding terms
The rate, cap, minimum amount and co-financing rules are not given in the catalogue. Do not apply another LEADER programme’s scale.
How to apply
First step: identify the LAG from the project’s address. Obtain the rules, the funding scale and the list of costs, then prepare a description, quotes, forecasts, expected jobs and a financing plan.
Timeline
The catalogue mentions a 2027 end date, but whether applications are open and funds available must be confirmed with the LAG.
