Hi, I've remain silent for long time, because I focused on execution of my idea. I learned coding a lot and created prototype. However it's clear now that this journey is much longer than I expected and I simply cannot figure it all out on my own. Bad coding correction, law stuff, EU policies on privacy, accounting and billing seems to much for me. I know it's not impossible to get this stuff in order but it will take a lot of time, and - I'm running out of money 😀

I've found an option to get funding from European Union which is some kind of governement funding in my country. They gave me quite a lot of money to start my company, and it's not a loan. Just a funding to make accounting/law/billing stuff. For me it would be blessing, I will do everyting what I need to start.

But I'm not sure if it's a good thing. I know - just get free money and don't care about anything, just focus on creating business. But is it good path? Should I get "free" money? Or should I figure it out by myself? No funding, just F** all.

To get this funding I need to show my business model, business plan and join incubation plan. It will take few months of working on this stuff. How much money I'm able to get? $0,5 mln in US purchasing power.

I will not give any shares. This is just pure funding, no loan, no shares.
