Since April 1, it has been possible to apply for an interesting subsidy: investment subsidies in the field of cybersecurity.

Especially in the current situation, where attacks are becoming more frequent, it makes a lot of sense to invest in IT security. We therefore advise everyone to apply for this subsidy! These projects must have a monetary scope of €2,000–50,000. Up to 40% of the costs are covered. We can discuss the possibilities in a short conversation and help with the submission.
