Schemes
Funding and advice for start-ups
RVO offers government funding for start-ups, personal advice, events and access to networks and events that help grow (internationally).
Support International Business - SIB
With this scheme for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the Netherlands and Dutch Caribbean territories, you can finance various activities that help you take the next step in international trade.
DHI Subsidy Scheme
The demonstration projects, feasibility studies and investment preparation studies (DHI) is a subsidy for SMEs with international ambitions in emerging markets and developing countries. The DHI programme helps SMEs test the feasibility of their concepts abroad, so that more Dutch companies can successfully contribute to sustainable development in these regions.
Transition Facility - TF
The Transition Facility (TF) was a programme that encouraged Dutch SMEs and knowledge institutes to become active on the up-and-coming markets in Colombia, Vietnam and South Africa. You can no longer apply for this subsidy; the facility is closed.
