What this scheme funds
This is a Dutch immigration scheme, not a funding grant. It allows a foreign entrepreneur who started an innovative start-up in the Netherlands under a start-up residence permit to switch, when renewing their residence permit, to the self-employed persons scheme instead of reapplying under the original start-up conditions.
