Local 10,000 Project (Regional Economic Circulation Creation Project)

The Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, in collaboration with industry, academia, finance, and government, will utilize local resources and funds.
We are promoting the "Local 10,000 Project," which aims to establish locally-based companies with high employment potential throughout Japan.
The "Regional Economic Circulation Creation Project Subsidy" provided through this project is,
Private businesses that receive loans from regional financial institutions to develop their businesses,
Regarding the initial investment costs required during the commercialization phase, the town will provide subsidies to the business operator for the relevant expenses.
This is a system in which the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications provides subsidies.

Furthermore, in accordance with the "Regional Economic Circulation Creation Project Subsidy" program,
The "Local 10,000 Project (Local Independent Projects)" is a national government initiative that provides support for projects independently funded by municipalities.
This menu item is also available.


Niseko Town,
We have established a subsidy program that corresponds to both of the above systems.


In any of the systems
Prior coordination with the town and financial institutions, as well as prior consultation with the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, will be necessary.
It is expected that the application process will take a considerable amount of time.
If you are considering using it or wish to apply,
Please contact the relevant department as soon as possible (e.g., agriculture-related → Agricultural Policy Division, tourism-related → Commerce and Tourism Division).
Please contact us for more information.
*Projects started before the grant decision is made are not eligible.


Furthermore, when providing the "Regional Economic Circulation Creation Project Subsidy,"
The grant decision will be made upon the project's approval by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications.
Furthermore, in the "Local 10,000 Project (Locally Independent Project),"
The town committee will conduct the review.
