Region · Funding Mecklenburg-Vorpommern

Digitalization in MV does not have to fail because of budget.

For businesses based in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, several funding pots for digitalization, AI and consulting are currently open: from the state's new AI funding to BAFA consulting funding with an 80 percent grant. NordFlux is based at the TGZ Wismar and checks with you which path fits your project, before a single euro is spent.

The Problem

The programs exist, but nobody has time to understand them.

Many businesses in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern know that grants exist, and still don't apply for any. The guidelines are long, responsibilities are scattered, and anyone who applies too late gets nothing.

  • 01Funding databases list programs that expired long ago: anyone relying on outdated information is planning with money that no longer exists.
  • 02The application must be submitted before the project starts. Anyone who signs the contract first and asks afterward has already lost the grant.
  • 03Every program has its own limits: number of employees, minimum volume, industry rules. Whether your own business qualifies is nowhere clear at a glance.
  • 04Between TBI, BAFA, LFI and advisory bodies, it is unclear who is even responsible and where the application belongs.
Use Cases
01

These funding pots are currently open to MV businesses.

As of July 2026, checked against the original guidelines. Which pot fits depends on the project, company size and project volume: that is exactly what we clarify in the initial analysis.

01

AI Funding MV: 50% for AI Adoption

The new AI Funding MV pays commercial SMEs with up to 100 employees and a business location in the state a 50 percent grant, up to a maximum of 50.000 euros, for hardware and software for AI adoption including accompanying consulting and training. The guideline has been in force since 30.06.2026, and approval runs through TBI GmbH in Schwerin.

Grant up to 50.000 € per project
02

FuEuI Guideline: Innovation Consulting via the TBI

What is colloquially called TBI funding is the state's FuEuI guideline. Its Innovation Consulting Services module funds consulting on the introduction of innovative, including digital, technologies with 50 percent, up to 200.000 euros over three years. Important: grants under 15.000 euros are not approved, so the program only fits from around 30.000 euros in project volume. The guideline runs until 30.06.2027.

Grant 50% for larger projects
03

BAFA Consulting Funding: 80% in the new federal states

BAFA funding for business consulting covers 80 percent of a maximum of 3.500 euros in consulting costs per consultation in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, so up to 2.800 euros in grants. Conceptual consulting is funded, for example a digitalization or AI strategy. The current guideline expires on 31.12.2026, so anyone wanting to use it should start this year.

Grant up to 2.800 € per consultation
04

INQA Coaching: 80% for digital change in the team

The federal INQA Coaching program funds up to twelve days of consulting by authorized INQA coaches at 80 percent, when it concerns personnel and organizational changes due to digitalization or AI. Entry runs through a free initial advisory point. We assess whether your project fits, and take over the technical implementation after the coaching.

Grant 80% on up to 12 consulting days
05

Funding Check instead of Funding Frustration

In the free initial analysis, we check your project against the currently open programs: company size, project volume, deadlines, application route. You get an honest statement about what is realistic and what is not, before you invest time in applications. We won't sugarcoat expired programs like DigiTrans or go-digital.

Impact no application in the wrong pot
What We Get Funded

The projects behind the applications.

A grant is not an end in itself. What NordFlux gets funded is what takes work off your hands every day afterward: digital employees for your workflows.

AI Agents
AI Agents as a Funding Project

An AI agent that reads inquiries, processes documents or prepares orders is a classic project for AI Funding MV. We build it so you can follow every step and intervene yourself.

Automation
Automating Processes

Recurring office work between your existing systems: receipts, orders, deadlines. Depending on its scope, such a project as process innovation can also fit into state funding.

AI Consulting
Strategy Before Technology

When it is still unclear where AI really adds value in your business, the funded path begins with a baseline assessment: readiness, data situation, a sensible first use case. This exact conceptual consulting is funded by BAFA.

How We Work

How a funded project runs.

As always at NordFlux, at a fixed price. The difference from the normal 30-day model: between the offer and the start lies the funding application, because it must go out before the project begins.

1

Initial Analysis with Funding Check

In 60 minutes we clarify the use case and the funding pot: what brings the biggest leverage, which program fits your company's size and volume. Free, on-site in MV or by video.

2

Fixed-Price Offer as Application Basis

You get a clearly described offer with a fixed price. It works directly as documentation for the funding application; it is only signed after the application, so the incentive effect is preserved.

3

Submit Application, Await Approval

The application goes to the responsible body before the project starts, for example TBI GmbH in Schwerin or BAFA. We supply the technical documentation and only start once you have the green light.

4

Implementation in 30 Days

After approval, we build your first digital employee productively in 30 days, with training and handover. You retain control, and the receipts for the proof of use are generated cleanly.

Frequently Asked Questions
05

What MV businesses often ask about funding.

What funding is available for digitalization in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern?

Currently, four main routes are open: the new AI Funding MV (50 percent, up to 50.000 euros, since 30.06.2026), the FuEuI guideline with the Innovation Consulting Services module (50 percent, for larger projects), BAFA consulting funding (80 percent in MV, up to 2.800 euros per consultation) and the federal INQA Coaching (80 percent on up to twelve consulting days). The former state program DigiTrans has expired.

When does AI Funding MV fit, and when does the FuEuI guideline fit?

AI Funding MV fits manageable adoption projects up to 100.000 euros in volume: a 50 percent grant, capped at 50.000 euros, for businesses with up to 100 employees. The FuEuI guideline applies to larger innovation consulting projects from around 30.000 euros in project volume and reaches up to 200.000 euros in grants over three years. In case of doubt, the project volume decides, and that is exactly what we clarify in the free initial analysis.

What is TBI funding?

Strictly speaking, TBI is not a program but the approval authority: TBI Technologie-Beratungs-Institut GmbH in Schwerin. It approves the state's technology and innovation funding under the FuEuI guideline, including Innovation Consulting Services with a 50 percent grant, as well as the new AI Funding MV. Anyone who says TBI funding usually means one of these two programs.

Is NordFlux a listed BAFA consultant?

Our BAFA listing is in preparation but not yet complete, and we would rather say so honestly than advertise with borrowed credentials. For the TBI GmbH programs, no consultant listing is required; there, proven qualification counts through references and certificates. In the initial analysis, we tell you specifically which application route we can already take with you today.

Does the funding application really have to be submitted before the project starts?

Yes, without exception. For all the programs mentioned, the incentive effect applies: anyone who signs a supply or service contract before approval, or before the application, loses their entitlement. Obtaining quotes and planning is allowed; signing is not. That is why our fixed-price offer is built to work directly as application documentation.
