There are hundreds of funding opportunities available to companies and entrepreneurs. Grants and incentives from European Union funding programmes are aimed to help your business grow or get started in Portugal.

The EU provides funding for a broad range of projects and programmes covering almost all areas. With so many options, there is a lot to take into consideration when searching for the right subsidies: budget, application processes, activities, and specific conditions. The European Union makes funding available in different forms, including grants, loans and guarantees.

Neomarca provides strategic funding advice to our clients to assist them in defining a tailor-made strategy for their investment projects. While working on these recommendations we consider all aspects that may influence the match between projects and grants.

Our team will help you explore relevant funding programmes, identify opportunities and develop a strategic and operational action plan for your investment and project ideas.

We typically start a project with evaluation of client needs, choice of the most suitable financing mechanism and assessment of project eligibility. In case of EU program funding projects, we develop the scope, budget and timetable which results in a formal application including any additional documentation.

As a main condition for access to the funds, companies must invest in projects related to:

  • Resilience: social and territorial cohesion and boosting productive potential, competitiveness, and cohesion.
  • Climate Transition: sustainable mobility, decarbonization, and energy efficiency, among others.
  • Digital Transition: digital development of communities and infrastructure, such as schools and SMEs.

For your company to be able to take advantage of the opportunities of the European Funds, we need to see if your investment project line up with the objectives of the European Funds.
