How to seek public funding

Andreu Rodellas, our Corporate General Manager, explains in an interview granted during the Barcelona New Economy Week 2022, how Euro-Funding can help companies to seek public funding for those projects that want to be innovative.

The Barcelona New Economy Week is a physical and digital B2B event that brings together singular events of Real Estate, Digital Industry, Mobility, Sustainability, Talent, Invest and Experience, all of them with a common denominator: the new economy. This is a different and unique event for being the first with a hybrid character: a physical event that is supported by a digital platform to facilitate the presence of people from all over the world and that aims to be disruptive and innovative.

Currently there is a lot of public money that companies are not accessing because they do not know how to apply for this type of subsidies. In addition, in the interview Andreu highlights the main challenges and opportunities that the new economy has to face after the pandemic.

Regarding the opportunities that companies have in this new paradigm, right now we have a framework of public funding as we have never had in Spain. Therefore, it is necessary to try, for the good of the Spanish economy, to bring out as many projects and finance as many projects as possible. As for the challenges we must overcome, Andreu explains that it is more of a cultural issue, as there is a lot of fear of entrepreneurship and a lot of fear of failure among companies and entrepreneurs.
