BAFA funding program: "Promotion of entrepreneurial know-how" 

Funded management consultancy

The Federal Office of Economics and Export Control (BAFA) subsidises consultancy services for small and medium-sized enterprises on all aspects of corporate governance. The aim of the funding is to increase the competitiveness and performance of SMEs and to secure jobs.

The support programme is aimed at companies that are already established. Consultations prior to founding a company cannot be subsidised under this programme. 

The "Promotion of entrepreneurial know-how" is aimed at

  • Young companies that have been on the market for no more than two years (start-up companies)

  • Companies from the third year after foundation (existing companies)

  • companies in economic difficulties, regardless of age (companies in difficulty)

We can support you with the following services:

Together with professional help it is easier to find new ways. According to the guidelines, conceptual and individual consultancy services are eligible for funding. Pure subsidy advice cannot be subsidised. We support with information and experience in determining suitable measures that are necessary and possible to overcome a crisis, e.g. in 

  • economic,

  • financial,

  • personnel and

  • organisational issues of corporate governance.

External support by an experienced partner strengthens the confidence in the basis for decision-making by third parties and creates trust with the stakeholders.

BAFA Corona consulting funding ended

The framework directive for the promotion of entrepreneurial know-how was temporarily extended by a module for the fast and unbureaucratic promotion of management consultancy for corona-affected companies and freelancers. The demand for this 100 percent consultancy support has far exceeded expectations. Several tens of thousands of companies have submitted applications. Due to the great demand, the funds earmarked for this special funding module have already been exhausted and funding from the Corona Special Module has been discontinued early. 

The other modules for the promotion of entrepreneurial know-how continue to enable subsidised consultancy services at favourable conditions. These modules in the regular programme with own contribution will continue unchanged and will continue to be available to entrepreneurs.
