Grants & Incentives system in Poland

Poland is the largest beneficiary of the EU’s Cohesion Policy, with a pool of more than EUR 76 billion allocated to support innovation, infrastructure, digitalization, green transformation and business development.
  • In addition, projects are funded through the Recovery and Resilience Plan and instruments such as the Modernization Fund.
  • State aid is also provided to entrepreneurs from the state budget.
  • Forms of financing include non-repayable grants, repayable instruments and tax incentives.
Compared to other EU countries, the situation in Poland is exceptionally favorable in terms of project financing opportunities.
  • Poland has the largest budget for investment support – no other EU country has received such large funds for economic development in the current perspective.
  • Unlike in Western Europe, where public support is limited by a higher level of economic development and lower limits for regional aid, in Poland investors can obtain a higher level of financing and access to programs dedicated to regions in need of transformation, such as Eastern Poland or coal mining regions.
  • The support system is diverse and flexible, and the constantly improved application procedures, digitalization of the administration and stable legal environment are conducive to the rapid implementation of projects.
