Development Law
Subsidy/ Tax Exemption / Leasing subsidy
The new Development Law emphasizes on the strengthening of small and medium-sized enterprises, the creation of innovative, extroverted and sustainable enterprises and the subsidizing of very small and small enterprises.
13 new state aid schemes are introduced for investment projects.
The investment plans that are subject to the Development Law should have the character of an initial investment and aim at the creation of a new unit, or the expansion of the capacity of an existing unit, or the diversification of the production of a unit into products or services that have never been produced in it, or finally to the fundamental change of the whole production process of an existing unit.
Depending on the type of investment, the size of the company, the status and the investment area, the subsidy can range from 30% to 75% of the budget of each project, with a maximum subsidy amount of either € 10 million per submitted investment plan, or € 20 million in total if there are collaborating companies, or € 30 million in total for a company group together with the collaborating or affiliated companies.
