Grants and attracting investment
Attracting grant funding and investments is a fundamental step for any business.
Ukrainian entrepreneurs who have just started operating may face various problematic issues, including a lack of adequate finance for scaling.
A grant for business and investments can also help when a business wants to experiment by introducing new goods and offers to the market (including those that involve the use of the latest technologies).
In this article, accumulating the extensive experience of the managers and lawyers of “Prikhodko & Partners”, we will analyze:
- which grants for small business or investments an applicant can try for
- what needs to be done at the beginning of the path to obtaining grants and investments
- what services our grants and investments lawyer offers
- how much our assistance will cost (depending on the client’s request).
Grants for Starting a Business
Currently, the most popular way to get a state grant for business is the eRobota 2026 program.
Our state actively finances important sectors of the economy – from agribusiness to light industry.
A business or an individual who only wishes to start their own business may receive the following types of assistance:
- a grant for business (for own venture);
- a grant for veterans and their family members;
- a grant for processing production;
- a grant for an orchard;
- a grant for a greenhouse.
Note! For ambitious entrepreneurs who have not yet reached the age of 25, eRobota 2026 also offers the opportunity to receive grants for young people to start their own business in creative industries. The main difference from other options is the non-mandatory condition for creating additional jobs.
Grants for Business Development
If a business is already operating and has positive market experience and wishes to scale to EU markets, the best option for it would be to try for an international grant.
They are usually aimed at implementing innovations in production, increasing export potential, and energy efficiency.
The most popular programs today are:
- Horizon Europe;
- EIC Accelerator (for Deep Tech startups);
- Seeds of Bravery, Brave1 (defense sector);
- USAID and others.
Investment Funds
Venture investments, unlike grants, involve transferring a share in the company’s capital to an investment fund.
The vast majority of investors and funds are interested in businesses that have already completed the initial path of establishment and development and are ready for growth.
Venture funds increasingly prefer business startups that at least have an MVP (Minimum Viable Product).
The most popular options are:
- Horizon Capital;
- SID Venture Partners;
- UANGEL, etc.
Consultation with a Grants and Investments Lawyer: Where to Start?
A consultation is a strategic step needed to determine priority paths for obtaining grant funding, seeking investments, and increasing the economic attractiveness of your project.
As part of the service, you will be able to:
- Firstly, receive a project analysis and determine possible ways to attract grants and investments, based on a specific request;
- Secondly, assess potential risks and chances of receiving funds (grants for business and investments are primarily a competition, so not everyone will have the opportunity to receive the prize);
- Thirdly, develop a strategy for the possible minimization of risks of refusal by investors and grant providers;
- Finally, find out the price of your specific issue within our company.

Where should I start looking for funding and attracting investment into a business?

Yes, we also work in an online format. During a remote consultation, lawyers conduct a detailed review of documents and formulate a strategy for capital attraction in the same way as in person.
Why is investment and grant support needed if I can apply on my own?
Legal support is not just about filling out forms, but primarily about ensuring that you and your business meet all the conditions. Furthermore, a proper project presentation model developed by a specialist significantly increases trust from grantors and investors toward the business.
