The idea of giving this &#8220;free money&#8221; by such entities is that it&#8217;s going to be used for a specific goal, and doesn&#8217;t need to be paid back.<\/p>\n<p>In some cases, however, the money might have to be paid back if the project is abandoned. For example, if you get a grant for building a mobile app that will benefit the environment but then you give up on this app idea, you might have to pay that money back.<\/p>\n<p>Some examples of grants include education loans, research money, and even stock options (which can be used to incentivize performance).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2225\" src=\"https:\/\/architsingh.com\/webioticnew\/wp-content\/uploads\/Webiotic_Blog_Article_Grants_For_Mobile_App_Development_Grant_Why_Startups_Fail.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p><figcaption>\u00a0Photo Credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.frac.tl\/work\/marketing-research\/why-startups-fail-study\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">frac.tl<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><a name=\"who-are-grants-for\"><\/a>1.1 Who are Grants For?<\/h3>\n<p>In order to receive a grant, you\u2019ll need to apply, as funds are limited.
