How to Find and Secure Government Support: A Step-by-Step Guide from You & Partners Experts

Experts from You & Partners have broken down the key issues surrounding the selection and acquisition of government support measures for investment projects.

Today, the Navigator of the State Information System for Industry (GISP) lists over 2,000 support instruments. They cover a wide range of tools—from direct financing and tax incentives to stabilisation clauses and preferences in public procurement.

However, having a large number of measures on offer does not guarantee they will be awarded automatically. Successfully securing support requires thorough project preparation.

Key steps for working with government support measures:

1. Feasibility assessment
Before submitting an application, you need to conduct a comprehensive analysis: does the project genuinely meet the eligibility criteria, and is it capable of fulfilling them?

2. Presenting the project with indirect effects in mind
When justifying the need for state support, it is crucial to highlight not only the direct benefits to the project initiator but also the broader impact:

• contribution to industry development;

• effect on the regional or national economy;

• social and environmental outcomes.

A detailed algorithm for selecting relevant government support measures is presented in our new video.
