The I Self-Employment Support Plan of Cantabria is a roadmap of the actions to be implemented by the regional government in the coming years to promote the creation, sustainability, innovation and training of self-employed workers in the Autonomous Community.

 

The plan includes 50 measures offered by different public entities of Cantabria to support self-employment. These measures will be unified and made available for the first time on a single platform: www.autonomos.cantabria.es

 

This platform is designed to become a comprehensive information hub where self-employed workers of Cantabria will find all the resources offered by the Government of Cantabria in a clear and organised manner.

The platform highlights the lines of support available to the self-employed according to the stage of their project: start-up, maintenance and growth, innovation, training and occupational health and safety.

 

Assistance programs can also be consulted by sector: commerce, industry, rural development, transport, culture and tourism as well as transversal assistance programs.

 

Each program includes a detailed file, providing all the key information: objectives, start and closing dates, documentation on regulations and calls, as well as a contact channel for the granting entity and a link for online applications to each program.

 

Additionally, users can subscribe to receive notifications on new calls for applications, deadlines, etc.
