Applications to FOSTER II SME Support Programme were completed between December 1 and 31, 2025, with intense interest from SMEs.
Winning SMEs will receive up to EUR 18,000 support for the employment of two personnel including one Turkish citizen and one foreigner. If at least one of the personnel is a woman or a young person under the age of 30, the grant support amount will increase up to EUR 22,000 paid in four equal installments.
Following the completion of the systematic evaluation process, the results have been finalized:
• 1,962 enterprises have been awarded support,
• 407 enterprises have been placed on the waiting list.
If any of the winning SMEs decline to benefit from the support or are unable to meet the conditions for receiving support, resulting in their “application being canceled/support being terminated,” the SMEs on the waiting list will be invited to benefit from the support, starting from the top of the list in order of points.

The support process started on February 1, 2026, and the first support payment request can be made by SMEs on June 1, 2026.
