Why a1 europe?
EU GRANTS
Every sector of business possesses the ability to obtain a E.U. grant for research, development and expansion. The probability of success and the amount of the grant can be significantly increased by cooperating with an experienced company, which will professionally assist and guide the process.
A1 Europe provides professional consultancy for clients and guarantees a positive formal evaluation of the application. Results show that we offer reliable and professional support to our clients, with a complete commitment to the common goal of success.
A well-prepared project is only half of the success. An investment mainly financed by a grant requires permanent documentation and the vigilance of a specialist. That’s why we offer a full range of services, from the choice of the grant to the investment settlement. If you plan a company’s development with the use of a E.U. grant we advise you not to wait because the more time we spend preparing application documents, the bigger the chance of a successful application.
Within our high-quality services we offer a free preliminary analysis of the investment proposal at the company’s headquarters as a example of our capabilities.

There is a wide range of public aid financed by national funds such as R&D relief, the concession related to IP BOX intellectual property rights, the tax credit in the Polish investment Zone and the liquidity loans.
FAQ
The company’s preparation for obtaining grants is a very complex process and the necessary action is based on the competition documentation. The first step must be to identify needs, analyze the market and identify competitors. It is then necessary to select the appropriate program and the selection of applications. The next step is to analyze the criteria for selecting projects and to compare them with the actual situation of the applicant.
These steps should identify the human, technical and financial resources that may be necessary for the preparation and implementation of the project, estimate the value of all expenses, plan to recruit the missing employees, financial resources and ensure the formal – legal aspects of the project. At the end of this process it is the preparation of the application.
In principle, all legal entities and business units without legal personality that meet the criteria specified in a given grant competition may apply for a grant. In practice, each program and the selection of applications under which projects are submitted define different potential applicants, and therefore the selection of the most appropriate competition should should be carefully analyzed, as the number of applicants is always limited.
R&D- Research and development projects are projects aimed at addressing a specific technological problem, i.e. reducing research uncertainty. R&D projects are generally subject to industrial research and development funding.
Investment projects are investments in production infrastructure, which mainly consist of fixed assets (machinery, equipment, real estate) and intangible assets.
The R&D allowance is a tax relief deducted from PIT or CIT. The benefit of this reduction allows companies to further reduce their tax base by an amount spent on R&D by 100% of these costs and by 150% for R&D centers. Among the eligible costs under the above mentioned allowance are, first of all, expenses for the salaries of employees involved in research and development, purchase of materials and raw materials, purchase of studies and other research services and expenses for the use of equipment used in R&D activities.
Only those who incur R&D expenditure may benefit from the allowance.
Yes. If the applicant fulfills the selection criteria, such entity may receive a grant. The origin of the capital does not matter.
