WiReGo: “Goslar County Investment Fund”

The goal is to support promising startup or investment projects in the Goslar district.

The following requirements must be met:

• The project must be of high quality and clearly presented in a proposal.
• The project to be funded must not have begun at the start of the program.
• Eligible applicants are either individuals seeking to start, acquire, or establish a business in the Goslar district, or small and medium-sized enterprises planning specific projects for further business development.  
• The capital required to implement the startup or investment project should exceed €6,000.
• Equity capital amounting to 50% of the requested investment amount must be contributed (e.g., for an investment amount of €20,000, an additional €10,000 must be contributed as “genuine equity capital”). 
• The venture must not be a freelance business, in which case professional ethics rules would preclude participation.

The following added value is in it for you:

• You will receive equity-like funds of between 2,000 € and 30,000 € for your project, which means a significant improvement in creditworthiness and simplifies and reduces access to bank and development loans.
• You get the possibility to act freely with these funds until the agreed repayment date of the participation sum (lies between 3 and 8 years).
• You will benefit from continuous, high-quality and free support from the joint Startup Service of TUC and WiReGo for the entire duration of your participation.
