The key novelty in FENG is the ability to support the entire R+D+I process research and development work and investments within one competition. As we have already informed, entrepreneurs will have to complete a mandatory module (R&D or innovation implementation, for large entrepreneurs the R&D module will always be obligatory to which they will be able to select optional modules tailored to their needs, allowing them to finance e.g. the costs of internationalization and promotion. on foreign markets or digitization of the enterprise.

The R&D module will have to constitute at least % of eligible costs of the entire project. This solution is an important novelty - in POIR, entrepreneurs had to submit separate applications and then implement projects to obtain funds for R&D work, investment and participation in foreign fairs, which photo retouching resulted in very high administrative burdens. In POIR, the flagship research competition was the Fast Path, in FENG the name SMART Path was adopted for modular projects (an acronym for: efficiently, modularly, actively, developmentally, technologically. The second significant change is the introduction of the so-called conditional grant.



While the SMART Path meets the needs of entrepreneurs, the conditional subsidy will probably be met with a lukewarm reception. How to understand a conditional subsidy? This will be partially non-refundable/partly refundable financing. The funding received by the entrepreneur will always consist of two parts, i.e.: non-returnable part - will not be refunded; refundable part (DZ) – will be refundable in part or in full after certain conditions occur. The amount to be reimbursed will be known after years from the completion of the project and will depend on the profitability of the project (the amount of accumulated revenues obtained from the implementation). The higher the income, the less there is to get back.
