With the SME growth subsidy, Flanders is helping SMEs to realise a growth trajectory. You can get a subsidy of up to 50,000 euros to buy advice or hire employees to realise that growth trajectory. The focus of your project must be on digitalisation or innovation. Every year, there are three periods in which you can apply for this innovation subsidy.
