The decision on support is issued for the implementation of a new investment that meets certain quantitative and qualitative criteria. The quantitative criteria (minimum amount of eligible costs) depend on the unemployment rate in the poviat where the investment will be implemented (the higher the unemployment rate, the lower the required amount of costs) and the size of the enterprise. Preferences were also granted to entrepreneurs conducting research and development activities and in the modern business services sector.
