It should be noted that, in case of the call for companies from country regions, there was enough of envisaged funding, and all companies, that qualified, are getting financing. Speaking about the other call , where capital city based companies could apply, we got many more companies meeting all project requirements, than the planned amount of funding. That is why decision was made to make a reserve list and find additional funds to finance these projects“, – claims minister of economics and innovation Rimantas Sinkevičius.
