Most of companies seize the opportunity of accessing EU funds, but few of them are able to conclude contracts with competent authorities, and even fewer succeed in implementing their approved projects. While the total value of the signed projects represents 72% of the fund allocation for 2007 – 2010, the total value of disbursements is only 13% of that amount. Proper information, assessment of company’s capabilities to meet the admission criteria and submit eligible projects, are key factors of success during 2011 – 2013 period of availability of approved EU funds.
 
The presentation addressed the following topics:
  • Basic principles and structure of EU funds
  • Company qualification criteria and project eligibility criteria
  • Main hurdles in getting and making use of EU funds
  • Actors involved: recipient company, consultant, bank, management/ implementation authorities
  • Roles and responsibilities indecision making process, preparation and submittal of statutory documents, contract negotiation and project implementation phases
  • Common pitfalls and troubleshooting
