5 years have passed since the “Bon na dotację” grant was launched. It is a program run by the Wrocław Technology Park, thanks to which Wrocław companies obtained financing for projects worth over PLN 280 million!

The “Bon na dotację” grant is a mechanism that helps entrepreneurs to obtain funding from the European Union. It should be emphasized here that the preparation of an application that allows you to apply for it is an extremely complex, specialized and time-consuming process, especially when we are talking about funds in the order of several dozen million zlotys, which are intended to allow the creation of innovative technologies, products or services. The Wrocław Technology Park comes in handy here, providing the “Bon na dotację” grant, non-returnable support for companies planning to carry out research and development projects.
