The French Ministry of Culture is launching its 8th “Fashion Call for Projects” to support young fashion brands and artisans with a reduced budget of 300,000 euros. The initiative is divided into two categories: “Fashion and Accessories” (10 emerging brands receiving 20,000 euros each to develop their image and invest in equipment) and “MĂ©tiers d’Art de la Mode” (5 companies receiving 20,000 euros each to acquire equipment or strengthen communications). To be eligible, companies must be based in France, operate in specific sectors, and have annual sales between 30,000 and 1 million euros. The program aims to promote sustainable fashion, digital transformation, and research and innovation, with 135 winners since its inception.
