Næringsfond for Grane kommune

Grane næringsfond is the municipal business fund of Grane kommune, presented on the kommune's own næringsutvikling pages and administered with Grane næringsutvikling (Grane NU). The fund is described as aimed at new establishments by small and medium-sized enterprises: "Grane Næringsfond er rettet mot nyetableringer av små og mellomstore bedrifter som bidrar til å verdiskapning, nyskapning, markedsutvikling og arbeidsplasser i Grane kommune" ("Grane Business Fund is directed at start-ups of small and medium-sized enterprises that contribute to value creation, innovation, market development and jobs in Grane municipality"). Applicants must be registered in the business registry and resident in Grane municipality.

The page sets a minimum project size: "Søknad med investeringsramme under kr. 100.000,- er ikke tilskuddsberettiget" ("An application with an investment frame under NOK 100,000 is not eligible for support"). It states the support ceiling: "Tilskudd kan støttes med inntil 30 % av godkjent kostnadsoverslag, inntil kr. 300.000,-" ("Support may be granted with up to 30% of the approved cost estimate, up to NOK 300,000"). These figures are recorded as the funding rate (30%) and maximum amount (NOK 300,000) above.

Applications are submitted through the municipality's online application portal. The page sets two annual deadlines: "Søknadsfrister: 15. mars og 15. september" ("Application deadlines: 15 March and 15 September"). Because the deadlines repeat each year and no specific calendar year is printed, the application mode is recorded as deadline-driven with no fixed closing date captured. A separate appeal form (klage) is also linked on the page.

The page provides a contact for the fund administrator, Grane næringsutvikling: daglig.leder@granenu.no. It links the fund's statutes (vedtekter), adopted in the municipal council on 21 June 2023, as a downloadable PDF, which is recorded under documents above.

No themes, categories, or eligibility beyond the text quoted from the kommune's own page have been inferred. Where the page does not state a fact (for example, a minimum grant amount or a total annual budget), the field is left empty above.
