You can use multiple programs to cover your project, provided each program funds a different part of the work and the rules of the grant allow this. Many businesses combine funding sources as part of a broader strategy, using one program to support R&D activities, another to help with capital upgrades, and another to promote international expansion. This approach is generally allowed as long as the same expenditure is not claimed twice. Each grant program sets its own rules, so it is important to check the guidelines carefully to ensure that co-funding or stacking is permitted. In some cases, a program may specifically state that applicants cannot receive support from another government source for the same project. In other cases, programs work well together and are designed to complement one another. Careful planning and documentation is essential when using multiple funding streams to ensure compliance and clarity.
