YOUR IDEA
YOUR STARTUP
in Linz.

Do you have an idea for a business, but don't really know how and where to start? Would you like to take the plunge into self-employment, but still lack the necessary financial security? Then apply for the start-up scholarship!

The City of Linz supports early-stage start-up ideas with EUR 1,000 per month (totalling EUR 5,000, paid out in two instalments). This allows you to cover part of your living costs and take care of starting your own business without any worries. A total of 4 scholarships will be awarded!
