In the trades the funding is often better than its reputation

For trades and construction there are comparatively many routes: start-up loans with mentoring, free business advice, investment loans for machines and vehicles, and energy programmes for buildings and equipment. Here too the most common mistake is timing – many programmes apply before you start trading, investment funding before the order.

What gets clarified first

1

What qualification do you bring?

A trade qualification, a completed apprenticeship, a degree or professional experience open different programmes. If the proof is missing, that is a named gap with a time requirement.

Have you already started trading?

Some start-up programmes require the application before you start trading or sign the first contract. After that mostly investment and advisory programmes apply.

Succession is often funded in its own right, sometimes better than a new business. The report checks both routes and orders them by reachability.
