With its small-group funding program, the state of North Rhine-Westphalia is specifically targeting small and medium-sized enterprises.
The particularly flexible instrument of small group funding meets the needs of companies for a trade fair presence that is as individual as possible. Small and medium-sized companies from NRW with a maximum of 250 employees receive financial support from the state if they form a group of at least three companies.
Eligible for funding is participation in trade fairs at which neither the federal government nor the state of NRW are represented and which are listed in the AUMA directory in the m+a ExpoDataBase trade fair planner. The companies plan and organise their trade fair presence on their own initiative.
