Development projects
Development projects can be of general benefit or economic. Public utility projects, e.g. the development of villages and communities is supported by utilizing cooperation, digitalization and internationalization. Industrial development can, for example, promote business cooperation and labor availability. The aim is to get young people involved in the activity.
About applying for projects
Development projects of different sizes are available for different needs. Usually the projects are local, but they can also be interregional or international.
The budget for small projects is €2,000–€8,000. The application and payment processes for these are simpler than for larger projects. In these larger projects, Liiver's support can be up to €120,000. In addition, €5,000 preparation money can be applied for applying for a larger project (e.g. the Smart Villages project).
The maximum support percentage for development projects is 90 %. However, the most common support percentage is 80 %. Self-financing in public benefit projects can be money and/or works for the benefit of the project. Self-financing of commercial projects is always money. When preparing the project, also think about where you will get the project's own and temporary financing.
All development projects are applied for From Hyrra. Hyrrä guides the preparation of the application. In addition, when you start the application in Hyrrä, it will also be visible to the employees of Liiveri, so we can comment on the application if you want. Hyrrä credentials are created in the Suomi.fi service. Hyrrä's home page has instructions for Hyrrä's technical use.

Project cost models
A cost model is selected during the application phase of the project. The cost model affects the preparation of the project's payment application and the necessary documents and attachments. Liiveri's staff will help you choose the most suitable cost model for your project.
Options for the cost model:
Actual costs are possible in all projects. In small projects, this is the only available cost model.
During the application phase, the applicant prepares a cost estimate and a financing plan.
In the payment phase, the project can be paid cost-based (against receipts) or output-based. A small project is always paid based on output.
The project's cost estimate separates personnel costs, purchasing services, and other direct costs. Also unpaid work in public benefit projects.
The project's indirect costs (19 of the % personnel costs) cover the project staff's travel costs and training, office space costs, IT equipment and software costs, and other general costs related to the operations of the project implementer
