Guadeloupe, made real.
Guadeloupe keeps being paid to do one thing more than any other: generic productive investment in small and medium–sized enterprises (‘smes’). Here's the rest of its funded life.
Guadeloupe, a NUTS2 region in France, has seen 879 projects awarded €1,186,967,002 in EU funding. This funding spans the period from 2014 to 2025, supporting various initiatives across the region.
The European Union is primarily funding Guadeloupe to support small and medium-sized enterprises, including productive investments and business development. Compensation for additional costs due to accessibility deficits and territorial fragmentation in outermost regions is also a key area. The European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) has provided the vast majority of this funding, alongside contributions from the European Social Fund (ESF), to address these priorities.
Funding in Guadeloupe has significantly decreased in recent years. The last three years saw €135,794,769 awarded, a substantial reduction compared to the €1,051,172,234 allocated in the preceding period.
