Funding

Plan your funding before you sign.

Depending on where your company is based and on your project, deploying NOESIS Élite may qualify for a digital-transformation grant or for financing. We check the options with you, before you commit, with no guarantee that funding will be granted.

Check my funding options

Within your project, NOESIS Élite is one building block: the one that structures your targeting and puts your sales team back in front of the right accounts. The funding application describes a need, a deployment and measurable results.

Your subscription stays a subscription: some schemes accept it, others exclude it, and each scheme’s rules decide, not the wording of the quote.

Project purpose

Deployment of a B2B sales development software solution to structure targeting, automate the monitoring of companies, identify business events and help sales teams act on them.
The need
What your sales team cannot do today, and what that costs you.
The deployment
Set-up, CRM integration if planned, team training, timetable.
The results
The indicators you track, defined from the start and measured over time.

A quote a funding body can read.

One line per type of expense, each priced separately. The funding body accepts whatever the scheme’s rules cover, without having to unpick a package price.

Principle

Each line matches what is actually sold. Nothing is relabelled to fit a box.

Three routes, three effects on your budget.

A grant lowers the net cost. A loan and a financial lease spread the expense. These are French schemes, for companies based in France, each with its own rules: options to check, never an entitlement.

Your region

Regional grant

Effect on the budget

Lowers the net cost of the project.

Amounts

Set by each region: rate, minimum spend, cap.

Worked example: Pays de la Loire
What it is

Aid from the region where your company is based, covering part of the expenses its rules accept.

Who it suits

Companies that meet their region’s criteria. In Pays de la Loire, your location is what counts, not your provider’s: the aid goes to your company.

Limits
  • Each region has its own schemes and rules, which may change.
  • Some schemes accept subscriptions, others exclude them.
  • In Pays de la Loire, you must apply before committing the expense.

Effect on the budget

Finances the project and spreads the expense. It is a loan to repay, not a price cut.

Amounts
Amount
€5,000 to €100,000
Term
3 to 5 years
Fixed rate
From 5.46%
Deferral
12 months maximum
What it is

A loan to finance a digital-transformation project, team training included. France Num lists customer relationship management and sales development tools among the uses covered.

Who it suits

Companies created more than 3 years ago, with 2 to 49 employees (consolidated headcount). Sole proprietorships are not eligible.

Limits
  • Subject to conditions and approval of the application.
  • Support from a chartered accountant is mandatory, as is an existing bank loan with more than 3 years left to repay.
  • No insolvency proceedings under way; borrower insurance is mandatory.
  • Neither Bpifrance nor France Num states how a software subscription is treated: check it with Bpifrance.

Specialised firms

Financial lease

Effect on the budget

Spreads the expense without reducing it: the lessor is paid through the rent.

Amounts

Set by each lessor, according to its offer.

What it is

The supplier assigns its contract to a leasing company, to which you pay rent until the end of the term, with no purchase option.

Who it suits

Companies that prefer rent to an upfront outlay. This route requires the supplier to offer it and the lessor to accept the contract: we tell you whether it is possible for yours.

Limits
  • Committed until the end of the contract: compare the financing cost, the term and the termination conditions.
  • These contracts between businesses are not subject to any specific regulation.
  • Not always combinable: the Pays de la Loire scheme excludes purchases financed by a financial lease.

03Frequently asked questions

What finance directors ask us.

Another question? Write to us.

contact@groupenoesis.com
Is a software subscription eligible?
It depends on each scheme’s rules. Pays de la Loire Investissement numérique accepts one year of subscription; other schemes, such as Région Sud’s “Mon bouclier cyber expert”, exclude subscriptions. The rules decide, not the wording of the quote.
When should we apply?
Each scheme sets its own rule. In Pays de la Loire, you must apply before committing the expense: the quote must not be signed nor the invoices paid when you apply. Talk to us about funding before you sign: it is the first thing we look at.
Can several schemes be combined?
Not always. The Pays de la Loire scheme excludes purchases financed by leasing or a financial lease, and awards only one grant per company or group. Each combination has to be checked against the rules involved.
Does funding change the price?
No. The price of NOESIS Élite stays the same. A grant lowers your net cost; a loan or a financial lease spreads the expense, at a financing cost.
We have no site in Pays de la Loire.
That scheme does not apply to you: it requires a head office, subsidiary or site in the region that the project concerns. Your own region may offer another; France Num lists digitalisation aid region by region, and we go through it with you.
And if no scheme applies?
Our offers stand on the commercial return they deliver, not on a grant. Funding removes a budget objection; it does not replace the business case.

Can your project be funded?

Tell us about your company and your project. We check the options with you, before you commit, with no guarantee that funding will be granted.
