As of April 17, 2026, three new funding programs under Development Law 4887/2022 have been launched, creating a strong framework for businesses planning investments, expansion, or strategic upgrades.

These programs cover a wide range of investment profiles—from manufacturing and logistics to large-scale projects—offering funding rates of up to 75%, depending on the case. For businesses looking to grow by leveraging public funding, this is a timely opportunity worth serious consideration.

1. Manufacturing & Supply Chain (4th Funding Program) 

This program is aimed at businesses operating in—or planning to invest in—manufacturing, industrial production, and supply chain activities.

Eligible investments include: • Establishment or expansion of production facilities • Modernization of machinery and equipment • Automation and digital transformation • Warehousing infrastructure • Logistics centers and distribution systems • Energy efficiency upgrades

Funding rate: up to 75%, depending on company size, project location, and investment type.

This program is a strong opportunity for businesses looking to increase production capacity and improve competitiveness.

2. Targeted Support Areas (2nd Funding Program) 

This program focuses on supporting investments in regions with specific geographic, economic, or demographic characteristics, aiming to boost regional development.

Αφορά επενδυτικά σχέδια:
• Άνω των 2.000.000€
• Σε παραμεθόριες περιοχές
• Σε περιοχές με χαμηλούς αναπτυξιακούς δείκτες
• Σε περιοχές με δημογραφική συρρίκνωση
• Σε επιλεγμένα νησιά

Οι επιχειρήσεις που δραστηριοποιούνται ή σχεδιάζουν εγκατάσταση σε αυτές τις περιοχές μπορούν να αξιοποιήσουν αυξημένα κίνητρα, μειώνοντας σημαντικά το επενδυτικό κόστος και ενισχύοντας τη βιωσιμότητα των σχεδίων τους.

3. Large-Scale Investments (2nd Funding Program) 

This program targets high-budget, strategically important investment projects.

Key features: • Minimum investment: €15,000,000 • Funding rate: up to 75% • Maximum funding amount: €20,000,000

It is designed for large industrial units, high-value tourism projects, energy and technology investments, as well as complex, export-oriented investment schemes.

This creates substantial funding opportunities for businesses planning large-scale growth.
