Innovative Start-up 2022

The Innovative Start-up 2022 program in Brandenburg supports technology-oriented start-ups and young companies with their own development and growth needs. Within the framework of a grant model, financial resources are provided for the realization of technological development services up to market launch. The goal is to rapidly bring innovative products, processes, or services to market maturity and thus make an important contribution to the competitiveness and innovative strength of the regional economy. The funding supports both new start-ups and already established young companies in implementing forward-looking business models.

Interested parties are founders and companies with headquarters or branches in Brandenburg who pursue a demonstrably innovative start-up project and can contribute equity in accordance with the funding guidelines. For the application, a completed application form, a meaningful project description, a detailed financing plan, and the CVs of the founders are required. The Investment Bank of the State of Brandenburg (ILB) handles the approval and disbursement of funds, while the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Labour, Energy and Climate Protection (MWAEK) strategically accompanies the program. Through the combination of consulting, public grants, and tailored financing instruments, promising start-up projects are specifically strengthened and oriented towards sustainable long-term growth.
