We regularly support aviation-focused businesses in Switzerland to get approval for special project co-financing of up to 80% with the BV87 Special Financing Scheme.
If you have a project in Switzerland that is designed to improve safety, security or environmental protection in aviation, you may be eligible for co-funding up to 80% from the Federal Office of Civil Aviation.
UASolutions is specialised in such funding applications and offers a full range of support in order to obtain co-funding from the Swiss Federal Office for Civil Aviation.
Projects are generally assessed in terms of their effectiveness for aviation safety, security or environmental protection and their relevance to the FOCA’s strategy.
The co-financing rate is usually up to 80%. However, it is generally proportional to the added value of the overall project in terms of safety, security or environmental protection.
Projects need to be submitted annually in November.
UASolutions will guide you through all administrative procedures and help you obtain the highest possible funding.
Projects that are usually eligible for co-financing by the FOCA (non-exhaustive list) typically include:
A strategic financing approach ensures that drone operators, manufacturers, and service providers can:
Access funding to scale operations, invest in R&D, or deploy new technologies.
Gain early access to financial resources to stay ahead in a fast-moving industry.
Reduce upfront capital burdens while ensuring sustainable financial management.
Increase approval chances with expert-backed funding applications.
