The Invest for Jobs initiative is an investment mechanism established by the German Development Bank (KfW) on behalf of the German Ministry of Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) inviting companies and public institutions to submit project proposals that contribute to generating sustainable jobs in the private sector.
The initiative offers co-financing grants of €1-10m for each project.
The project selection process depends on the presentation of a competitive study for each project, and priority is given to proposals that are well-established, of high quality, and ready for implementation.
Co-financing is granted only to projects that are most viable in terms of operational feasibility, financial sustainability, and greater business opportunity.
