The Ministry of Investments and European Projects sent, on Wednesday, at the request of StartupCafe.ro, some relevant information, which shows the size of the unpleasant situation that some entrepreneurs who have accessed the SME grants of EUR 50,000-500,000 each for the re-technology of their companies, in the form of recovery aid from the COVID-19 crisis, POC 4.1.1 and 4.1.1 Bis, have acquired.
Now, MIPE has a solution for affected entrepreneurs: to sue the ministry.
There are 40 SME projects for which the state is now asking the beneficiary companies to give back part of the aid accessed through schemes 4.1.1 and 4.1.1 Bis, within the Competitiveness Operational Program (POC) 2014-2020, according to the official data now communicated by MIPE.
