The available budget for the Operational Programme for EU Structural Fund Investments for 2014-2020 amounts to € 7.9 bn, of which € 6.7 bn in EU contributions. How is this OP structured, how do the Lithuanian authorities take on their task of absorbing this enormous amount of funds?

But what should an entrepreneur do to successfully take part in projects that are co-funded by the EU? How to successfully apply for project funding?
