EU-Förderagentur GmbH

The EU-Förderagentur GmbH (EUFA) was founded in 2007 in order to support the different departments and organisational units of the City of Vienna in the implementation of various EU-projects.

The team of EUFA with their extensive know-how regarding the EU's funding landscape provides specialised services in the areas of staff management, finances and travel organisation on the basis of trust agreements in order to enable the municipal departments and offices to focus on strategic work and on the actual content of the projects.

Provided services

Personnel management

EUFA supports Vienna's municipal departments and offices in the recruitment, hiring and development of specialised staff from an international pool of candidates to work on the content of individual projects.

This guarantees that the departments have sufficient expert personnel to execute the EU projects for the benefit of Vienna without the need of employing these staff members on a permanent basis.

Financial management

EUFA also focuses on the administrative support when it comes to financial management and controlling for the EU-projects executed by municipal departments or offices of the City of Vienna.

This includes billing and accounting as well as the monitoring of costs and preparation and submission of all documents required in order to receive the project-related payments from the EU-funds.

Travel management

The Travelcenter of EUFA executes the booking and accounting of business trips required for the execution of EU-projects by the municipal departments or offices of the City of Vienna.

All tasks are fulfilled in adherence with the respective project guidelines as well as in consideration of the travel budget allocated to the individual projects.

Application Lifecycle Management (ALM)

The expert team of ALM takes care of the development and supervision of online applications such as databases and websites in connections with EU-projects executed by the City of Vienna.

The range of services in this field includes everything from the development of the required specifications over the project management with the organisation of deadlines and examination of progress up to quality assurance and user support.

As the EU-Förderagentur GmbH is set up as a direct subsidiary of Wien Holding GmbH and therefore wholly owned and governed by the City of Vienna, their sole objective is to assist in the implementation of projects financed under EU Structural Funds and other EU funding programmes as well as in the positioning of Vienna as a location for co-operation programmes and in the internationalisation of the city by involving experts from a large number of EU-countries.
