Your odds
Not published

This funder does not publish a success rate. We rank it using the rate observed across similar programmes and label it as an estimate rather than implying we know.

Effort
quick

Quick — mostly identity and bank details.

This is de minimis aid. It counts against the €300,000 ceiling that applies to your company across a rolling three years in this member state (Commission Regulation (EU) 2023/2831). If a new award would take you over, Article 3(7) disqualifies that award in full rather than reducing it — so check your headroom before you apply, not after. Check your headroom for France.

Who can apply

TPE and PME located in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes or moving there, with investments favouring ecological transition; able to receive de minimis aid.

How to apply

  1. Subscribe via the Bpifrance online service or contact the regional office. — link
  2. Obtain the 1-for-1 financial partner.
