This is the editorial block

Do you have a business concept that involves serving the public and are looking for a retail space that is financially viable? The Rent Assistance Fund reduces the rent burden during the start-up phase, thereby creating opportunities for new uses in the city center and in neighborhood centers. The goal is to ensure that promising business concepts don’t fail because of high rent and that they remain at their location after the funding period ends.

Second Item: Editorial

It’s simple: After your application is approved, you’ll rent a vacant retail space at a subsidized rent. Funding is available for concepts that attract the public, such as retail (including pop-up stores), restaurants, services, startups, or similar uses. The eligible space is limited to up to 300 m², and the funding program runs through December 31, 2026. There are two versions of this program: one for downtown locations through the State of North Rhine-Westphalia’s “Immediate Action Program to Strengthen Our City Centers,” and—following initial success—a municipal rental fund for the districts.
