IMPORTANT UPDATE FOR INTERREG NEXT APPLICANTS: 1ST CALL STILL OPEN FOR INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS

The application window for Small-scale Projects and Regular-Scale Projects without infrastructure budget line under the Interreg NEXT Hungary-Slovakia-Romania-Ukraine Programme's 1st Call for Proposals has closed on 20 February, 2024. We are thrilled to share our first insights. And while we dive into the data, we want to clarify a crucial point: if you're working on infra-type projects, don't worry—the 1st Call isn't closed yet! You still have time to submit your proposals until March 14, 2024, at 15:00 CET. So, keep those ideas coming!

Here's a glimpse into the initial numbers: 264 applicants submitted 85 project proposals, collectively requesting EUR 65.6 million in funding. These proposals span across our programme's priorities and objectives, showcasing a diverse range of innovative projects aimed at fostering cooperation and development across our border regions.

Upon analysis, some key trends emerge: Priority 2, focused on creating a healthy and attractive border region, attracted the highest number of proposals. Interestingly, within Priority 1, Objective 1.2 addressing biodiversity and pollution reduction received more attention compared to Objective 1.1 focused on climate change adaptation.

As we continue processing the 85 applications, our team is diligently reviewing each submission for administrative and eligibility criteria. We understand the anticipation and assure you that each proposal will receive thorough consideration.

Finally, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to all Ukrainian applicants for their unwavering interest and enthusiasm, despite the challenges faced. Your dedication strengthens our collective efforts towards cross-border development and cooperation.

Stay tuned for further updates! For the latest news, follow us on our social media channels.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: CHANGES IN DE MINIMIS REGULATION FOR STATE AID

We bring to your attention recent regulatory changes that affect the State aid rules applicable in our Programme. The European Commission has recently adopted amendments to the general rules for small amounts of aid (De Minimis Regulation), effective from January 1, 2024, to December 31, 2030.

Of particular significance to applicants is the increase in the ceiling per company from €200,000 (in effect since 2008) to €300,000 over three years, considering inflation. This adjustment provides increased flexibility for support.

Please take note of this modification during your application process. Ensure that the Annex II De Minimis declaration, an integral part of the application, accurately reflects the new ceiling.

For further details, you can review the official European Commission announcement here.

Should you have any inquiries or require clarification, feel free to reach out to our team.

Thank you for your attention, and we anticipate receiving your applications.
