Successful applicants can receive funding for up to 70 %  of their expenses related to providing these services, the remaining  30 % to be co-financed by Czech businesses benefiting from these services. The total funding received from the Embassy within the project can amount up to CZK 500,000. The proposed project must take place between 1 January and 31 October 2022.
