The Basque Government supports new entrepreneurial SME initiatives
The Basque Government and the Provincial Councils have launched a plan to support entrepreneurship with the aim of fostering the culture of entrepreneurship, increasing new business ideas and focusing on intra-entrepreneurship, as well as complementing the support plans for entrepreneurs and encouraging the emergence of new entrepreneurs.


Areas of action of the Plan

The plan envisages support for all phases of entrepreneurial activity, with special emphasis on support for intra-entrepreneurship processes within companies:

- Intra-entrepreneurship: support for entrepreneurial activity carried out by existing SMEs with the aim of generating or maintaining competitive advantage.

- Ideas and new entrepreneurial initiatives: help with the necessary steps to start up an entrepreneurial initiative such as access to financing and the location of the initiative, procedures for setting up the company.

- Growth, consolidation and transfer of SMEs.

- Entrepreneurial culture and values: actions to promote the entrepreneurial spirit and training in economic aspects.

- Integration of the support ecosystem (policy, infrastructure and financing)

The Plan foresees an investment of 266 million in the period 2013-2016.

The plan foresees an investment of 266 million up to 2016 by the four institutions and is committed to a sustained line of investment.
