Formalities

Here you will find information about formalities related to this subject:

• General, technology-oriented and digital business incubators; uptake

  19 digital incubators at 28 locations as well as another 40 or so general and technology-oriented incubators throughout Bavaria serve as central contact points to promote start-ups.

• Contract bond; application
  Under the "Order Guarantees" programme, LfA Förderbank Bayern provides default guarantees for sureties for domestic and foreign orders and for order-related advance financing, which are assumed or granted by the applicants' house banks.
• Equity capital; information on granting
  Investment companies or private investors offer equity capital without the usual bank collateral, i.e. equity capital in the form of contributions as share or nominal capital, but also as a silent partnership.
• Visual artists; application for a studio grant
  Visual artists may receive a monthly grant to cover their studio expenses for a period of two years.
• Guarantee; application for assumption
  In order to obtain bank loans, it is generally necessary to provide sufficient bank collateral. Small and medium-sized enterprises in particular often do not have such collateral. They therefore have difficulty in covering their capital requirements. Guarantees from LfA-Förderbank Bayern and Bürgschaftsbank Bayern are also intended to enable these companies to take out loans.

  Promotion of coaching for start-ups and business takeovers in the pre-establishment phase. Project sponsors are chambers of industry and commerce, chambers of crafts and the Institute for Liberal Professions.
