Conditions5

Typed facts extracted from the source documents by Scindu's grant-data review. Each value keeps its own conditions. Unknown means unstated, not zero or unlimited.

Applicant restriction
An individual or team with a product-innovation idea may apply; following selection, a capital company/startup must be registered and operate in Eastern Poland (including Mazowieckie outside the Warsaw metropolitan area exclusions). The person/team application stage and post-selection company condition are distinct.
Application restriction
The exact PARP row lists this operator programme from 18 March 2024 through 10 May 2027. The operator rules describe nine incubation rounds but do not bind the current specific round window or a round-specific allocation in this packet.
Other condition
Grant costs are based on market rates; normally at least three offers are compared, with documented single-supplier/rights exceptions. The operator may deem some or all requested expenses ineligible, ineffective or excessive, recommend less, and makes the final grant decision.
Other condition
The reviewed rules and grant agreement define a financial grant for eligible services, not a salary schedule or general payroll allowance. They specify no employee job titles, eligible payroll, salary rates, headcount, or FTE; this is not a general hiring prohibition for the startup.
Other condition
The project targets 270 startups; no more than 70% are to receive a recommendation to apply for Component IIa. This is an overall project recommendation share, not an employment quota, grant intensity, or a per-round award cap.
Amounts and costs4
Eligible cost
The grant may fund services unavailable within the project partnership that serve MVP development or business-idea development; the approved individual incubation plan specifies the budget and eligible scope.
Ineligible cost
Administrative costs related to implementing the grant cannot be charged to the grant; grant spending must concern development of the startup idea.
Ineligible cost
The startup funds VAT and other expenses not foreseen for grant financing from its own resources.
Expected contribution per project
PLN 32,180

Average individual grant for a startup, net of VAT, under this programme’s project rules. The individual amount is based on an approved incubation plan/budget and operator decision; this average is not a guaranteed award or maximum.
