Support for business in Poland, Russia and Romania
Support for business in Poland, Russia and Romania

Summary/Abstract: The article contains a brief description of existing methods and programs to promote business in Poland, Russia and Romania. Financial support for businesses can be obtained either from the European Union or from other sources. The success of small and medium-sized enterprises is crucial for increasing employment and creating new jobs. The effects of economic activities largely depend on the skills of the workforce and its ability to adapt to changes. This is why many businesses can benefit from ESF assistance in order to increase the competence and flexibility of their most valuable asset – their employees.For this reason, in this article assumptions about scholarship programs such as „Erasmus practices „and„ Erasmus for young entrepreneurs” are presented. Moreover, this article provides a brief description of activities carried out by a local IT company and students from the University of Pitesti during the „Erasmus practice” project. However, studies, especially those concerning Poland, suggest that at present business people are not interested in free trainings. Direct and immediate possibility of financial support in order to make investments and to reduce labor costs are a more relevant issue to them. Such support is particularly important to young entrepreneurs who have a „business idea”. To prepare this article, information available from the Internet, from the official websites of government institutions, banks, portals, the European Union states and others, as well as international media was used.
