The endowment of the fund foreseen by the PNRR is 200 million and the purpose of which is to foster greater and equal participation of women within the economic fabric of the country, especially the entrepreneurial one where equal opportunities are not yet completely full: the point of arrival in fact is to give birth to the creation and consolidation of many businesses feminine.

The central theme of the interventions that can be facilitated with the 2022 female entrepreneurship fund is certainly that of digitalization and market innovation. For this reason it is a good idea for all those who want to submit the application, contact us at Tredipi.it as we have been providing support to businesses for years, helping them to start the digitalisation process with the aim of facilitating the life and work of entrepreneurs, or promoting renewed IT knowledge in the field of work to increase production.

Who is the 2022 Women's Entrepreneurship Fund aimed at?

The rationale of the financing fund is to offer economic support - helping the creation or sustenance of already existing businesses - to women-owned businesses of any type and size, even newly established ones, provided that they are based in one of the 20 Italian regions. Furthermore, always with a view to facilitating female work and rewarding it innovative ideas, the fund financing can also be requested by natural persons who, however, undertake to set up a company once they have obtainedthe funds.

For this reason, the financing fundhas a very specific subjective scope of application and is unlikely to misunderstandable. They can apply for thefinancing fund, in fact:

• cooperative companies or any other company that has, in the social company, at least 60% of women who hold the title of member
• for joint-stock companies, the fund financing can only be requested if the shares or individuals who make up the board of directors are women for two thirds of the total
• individual businesses are admitted, as long as they have a female owner
• finally, the self-employed work of women with a VAT number is also rewarded

Compliance with these requirements is fundamental to be able to be admitted to the 2022 women's entrepreneurship fund.

What is funded by the 2022 Women's Entrepreneurship Fund

The 2022 Women's Entrepreneurship Funddistinguishes between two cases of financing, taking care to differentiate between the case of those who have an already established business and those who do not. First of all, let's start with the novices:

• A company established less than 12 months ago, or a company established by a freelance professional, can submit applications for up to 250 thousand euros as a non-repayable grant which, depending on the size of the project, for projects up to 100 thousand euros, up to 80% of the expenses are covered from the concession, which becomes 90% for unemployed women and which can be spent up to a maximum of 59 thousand euros. Projects that reach up to 250 thousand euros, however, are only covered by the fund for 50%.
• If the company has been active for more than a year, however, the projects can be presented with a limit of only 400 thousand euros, but with the obligation to invest them only for the development or creation of new productive or corporate content and which, in any case, behaves half as a non-repayable contribution and half as zero-interest financing.

The investment project, moreover, must be completed in 24 monthsand requests to finance the working capital are also possible. Furthermore, for businesses that have been in existence for more than 36 months, the women's financing fund 2022 is granted entirely and on a non-repayable basis. To facilitate access, during the online request it is also possible to request specific tutoring for the use of the concessions or a 2 thousand Euro voucher to purchase marketing services.
