The deadline for the summer wave of the 2025 Revolving Fund has been extended to June 22. Existing micro-entrepreneurs have a great opportunity to apply for the business support program from the It's Craft Revolving Fund. This is a real opportunity to receive financial assistance in the form of an interest-free loan to develop your own business.
What is a Revolving fund?
A revolving fund is a financial program that operates on the principle of continuous revolving funds (from the Latin revolve). Funds are provided to micro-entrepreneurs on an interest-free term loan for a period of 6 months.
After the loan is repaid, the funds are again used to support other program participants. This way, the fund is constantly being “recharged” and makes it possible to help more entrepreneurs.

The program is aimed at existing micro-entrepreneurs who:
- are engaged in the production or sale of craft products,
