Tilskot til berekraftig verdiskaping 2026

Vestland fylkeskommune is offering 18 million NOK in funding for regional development projects that contribute to value creation in Vestland through sustainable use of natural resources, green business development, and innovation. The grant program supports time-limited initiatives with regional significance including development work, methodology development, and facilitation for competence and business development. Projects must be anchored in regional needs and partnerships, and must contribute to at least one of four priority areas: green business development (targeting net zero emissions by 2030), land use for business development, innovative and inclusive communities, or competence development in working life. Projects can receive support for up to 3 years, with the county covering up to 50% of approved costs. The program emphasizes sustainable business practices, circular economy, energy efficiency, export from mainland industries, and year-round employment in tourism.
