Microsoft spearheads European fund finding
InternetNews | at | by Mike
At a time when funding the growth of small and medium businesses is a challenge, Microsoft, Intel and HP formed a consortium to help European SMBs locate money from the European Union.
The group will use Microsoft's European Union Grants Advisor initiative, which helps small and midsize businesses obtain grants from the EU, as the basis to stimulate SMB growth in the 25 countries of the EU.
EUGA will help SMBs with the application process should they wish to apply for grants. Originally tested in Spain, the initiative was extended to Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic and France earlier this year.
