Let’s continue the story from “A foreigner entrepreneur in Finland: Company registration (5)” and “A foreigner entrepreneur in Finland: Company registration (6)” 4 months ago.
So I got the informal approval (just my personal feeling) of startup grant in May, and I completed company registration in June. After my business trip in Japan and came back to Finland in the middle of July, I confirmed with my business coach the rest works for getting startup grant. She told me that the self-employed resident permit is needed still before getting the formal approval for startup grant.
All right. Since I need to get the self-employed resident permit after graduation anyway, I started the application process.
