How does InnoGo! work?

InnoGo! offers advice and guidance, knowledge, a network and funding for developing and realising an innovative product, service or process. To be approved for the InnoGo! programme, you will need to present your plan or business plan to the InnoGo! committee, which consists of an external team of experts. This committee decides whether you can participate in the programme and on whether to grant a loan with favourable conditions. An InnoGo! fund manager will help you prepare your presentation for the committee.

You can borrow up to €300,000 via InnoGo! in the first phase of developing an innovative idea or starting up your business. This loan can be used for things such as developing a prototype, applying for a patent or researching your invention, carrying out a commercial or technical feasibility study, acquiring business premises, paying for external consultancy fees, and the initial start-up costs of a new company. The fund managers of InnoGo! will look at your innovative plan together with you and assist you where needed. The advice and network of the experienced team can help you one step further.

Tailor-made solutions are always possible. InnoGo! is happy to brainstorm with you.

The InnoGo! loan is a personal loan under the following favourable conditions:

• First 2 years: grace period (with no interest accruing);

• After that, pay off the loan in 2 to 5 years;

• From the 3rd year: 5% interest;

• Early payments are allowed without penalty;

• Subordinated loan, ranking below other loans or funding.

If you want to know if your plan is eligible for funding, please do the funding check.

FAQ

Each committee member has a particular type of expertise with a valuable network. As an InnoGo! participant, you can benefit from this expertise via access to this network and personal advice.

InnoGo! does not finance management fees. You will need to pay out your salary from your own resources: savings or additional funding.

Every application with InnoGo! is submitted to the InnoGo! committee, which determines the amount of the loan.
