Business start-ups and student-run companies

Maintaining and strengthening entrepreneurship are important concerns of economic policy in Mecklenburg-West Pomerania. There is still a lot of catching up to do in the state when it comes to developing self-employment. Moreover, the coming years will see a large number of small and medium-sized enterprises handing over business to successors – successful corporate successions safeguard businesses and jobs. Against this backdrop, the state gives financial assistance to start-ups, acquisitions and new companies by promoting founders grants and microloans.
