The program “Mipymes Capital Seed”, intended for micro, small and medium entrepreneurs, will deliver an amount of up to $ 100,000 to projects in the “Idea-Project” stage and up to $ 250,000 for initiatives in the “Start-up” phase.

For this, a public or private operator with experience in innovative productive ventures will evaluate the applications made, then a selection will be made. García explained that the objective of the program is to encourage the creation and implementation of innovative business initiatives that contain a high potential for development and growth, which promote creativity, employment and strengthen the productive matrix.

Another program is “Mipymes venture capital”, for which the State plans to allocate $ 2 million. The administration body of the Capital Fund is the Board of the Trust, which is chaired by the Ministry of Industry and Productivity (Mipro).
