Government Grants For Business: Who qualifies?

Are you looking for government grants or loans to help start or expand your small or medium sized business? What are the requirements to qualify for government money? How much is available for start-ups, equipment purchase, property purchase, renovation or expansion, to hire employees or to subsidize salaries?

Are the funds for research and development? Are you conducting research or developing new technologies? Is your business benefiting your community by creating jobs or addressing other local or national social issues? Is your business located in a rural or urban area?

These are some of the relevant questions that will help you determine what funding opportunities may be available to you and your organization through federal and state government grant or loan programs.

Raising capital for equipment such as tools, computers, machinery and for adequate cash flow for salaries, inventory, supplies and other fixed and variable costs is vital to all businesses, whether new, small, medium sized, a non-profit or for profit business.

So are there grants for your business? The answer requires more information about your unique set of circumstances and needs to determine if it's a yes or a no. For government grant money, as in money you don't have to pay back, or as it's badly described as 'free money', there are several conditions and specific qualifications required in order to be eligible. Generally, your organization's objectives must match the objective of the government agency awarding the grant.

The process of seeking out government grants, loans and other funding opportunities can be complex and time consuming.
