It is young people who start their business and we even went retroactively from 1\/1\/25<\/b>, that is, even if they have started &#8211; they can apply and get <b>13,000 euros<\/b> if they start on their own, <b>21.000<\/b> if they start two kids together and set up a business and if they want to hire a person, even <b>15,000<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p>And the most important thing about this program, which we brought in through negotiation, is that <b>it has a simplified payment<\/b>. That is, the first six months they will get <b>4,300 euros<\/b>, the second six months <b>4,300 euros<\/b>, the third six months <b>4,300 euros<\/b>, unless there are two of them and they have hired a person,&#8221; he said. <b>Papathanasis<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p>He then referred to the <b>Social Climate Fund with interventions of \u20ac5.3 billion, and the Modernisation Fund with resources of \u20ac1.6 billion<\/b>. &#8220;The talk about the next day of the Recovery Fund and where the resources will be is these two funds.
