BAFA

Abbreviation for Bundesamt für Wirtschaft und Ausfuhrkontrolle

In short and in plain language

The BAFA is a federal office in Germany.

It runs plans that give public money to firms.

Small and mid-sized firms can ask there for grants, for example to pay for advice. This depends on the plan.

The office says itself which plans are open and what rules apply.
