Subsidy and grants support for startups
Startups are typically born out of innovative, sustainable and impactful new technology. To develop and commercialize such technology there are many grants and subsidies available. EY can support startups obtaining and retaining grants and subsidies.
We support startups with obtaining and retaining subsidies and grants
Did you recently start your own startup? Are you planning to raise funding soon? Then it might be worthwhile to investigate if there are subsidies or grants available to fund technological development and your company’s growth.
Innovation and sustainability are often at the core of newly founded startups. Countries and economic areas try to boost both innovation as well as sustainability through subsidies and grants. As a startup, it can be valuable to see which subsidies or grants could match your company, as they can offer advantages over other sources of startup funding, such as equity or debt funding.
EY can support with this. We have a dedicated subsidy team supporting entrepreneurs with applying, obtaining and retaining subsidies and grants, across different countries and regions worldwide.
As part of every subsidy application a detailed budget or financial plan needs to be built. Our EY Finance Navigator team can provide support in creating the financial projections for your subsidy application. The EY Finance Navigator team has several years of experience supporting startups and scale-ups specifically with financial planning and fundraising. Over the past years we have supported entrepreneurs in over 80 different countries with creating their financial models, by using our EY Finance Navigator software, Excel models, workshops and consulting.
Our capabilities include:
- Creating an overview of subsidies and grants that fit with your business
- Supporting you in creating a (long-term) subsidy and grant strategy
- Performing the application for different types of subsidies and grants
- Helping you drafting the required documentation for the application, such as the application form, financial projections and/or business plan
- Provide support with delivery and reporting obligations, once a subsidy or grant has been obtained
