It suits you if…
- You are an association, foundation, network, consortium or other public body.
- You want to promote businesses abroad through a joint project.
- Your member businesses have an operating site in Emilia-Romagna.

How much you can get
The maximum grant is €60,000, and it covers at most 50% of the costs the call pays for. The grant does not cover the rest of the costs. Example: If you spend €60,000, you receive €30,000 and pay €30,000 yourself. Another example: If you spend €120,000, you receive €60,000 and pay €60,000 yourself. The call does not state the total budget, so ask the help desk whether funds can run out. The aid falls under de minimis, which means small aid with a three-year ceiling. Check how much you have already received.
