How it works

We can support the international growth of your company abroad with low-interest financing through the 394/81 Fund managed by SIMEST and set up to foster the development of competitiveness in overseas markets.

As of 28 October 2021, three new financing lines are operational thanks to the resources allocated to the 394 Fund by the European Union under the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP) - NextGenerationEU.

In particular, we can support your international focus company with:

• the Digital and Ecological Transition. We can support your investments aimed at the Digital (at least 50% of the total financing) and Ecological Transition of your company and support its competitiveness on overseas markets.
• participation in international trade fairs and exhibitions, including in Italy, and trade missions. We can support your participation in a single international event, including a virtual one, with the aim of promoting your business on overseas markets or in Italy, by providing financing for at least 30% for digital expenses related to the project (unless the project has a green or digital theme).
• the development of e-commerce in overseas countries. We can help you realise your digital investment project to build or improve a proprietary (dedicated) e-commerce platform or for access to a third-party platform (market place), intended for the marketing of goods or services produced in Italy or under Italian brand names.
