Vytvorené dňa: 08.07.2025 Aktualizované dňa: 08.07.2025
Following a proposal from the Ministry of Economy of the Slovak Republic, the government approved a regulation to increase the intensity of regional investment aid by 10 percentage points for projects in critical technology sectors. This measure reflects new rules approved by the European Commission and will enable Slovakia to provide greater support for innovative investments in digital, clean and biotechnologies. The new conditions will come into effect on 1st of March 2025.
„Slovakia must actively encourage investment in strategic sectors that will shape our future. Increasing regional investment aid in line with EU rules will enable us to provide greater support for projects with a high added value and ensure the competitiveness of our economy. It will create conditions for new jobs, innovation and the technological development of the country," said Economy Minister Denisa Saková.
The increased intensity of investment aid will support projects involving investment in digital and clean technologies with a zero carbon footprint, as well as biotechnologies. This includes the development and production of medicines included on the EU's list of critical medicines.
Alongside the increase in aid intensity, the proposal introduces a maximum ceiling on investment aid, in line with EU rules. This cap is set at 75% of the eligible costs of the investment project, ensuring fair and sustainable support. The new rules will apply from 1 March 2025, with increased investment aid available until 31 December 2027.
