Investment in support services for the internationalisation processes of SMEs.

 

What is it?

Investment in the development of support services for the internationalisation of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), particularly in awareness-raising, capacity building and consultancy, with two complementary strands:

1. SME internationalisation through e-commerce, via a programme designed to strengthen the promotion of e-commerce for new exporting companies.

2. Launch of a new personalised digital promotion support programme, focused on market diversification for companies with consolidated international experience.

The initiative will be implemented by AICEP Portugal Global and will be integrated into the Exportar Online programme, through consultancy and implementation support components, as well as the Mais Mercados programme. Given their scope, these programmes comply with the applicable public aid rules on internationalisation support.

 

Who is it for?

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).

 

Funding

€25 million over five years, focused on the rollout of new components of the Exportar Online programme (€17.5 million) and the implementation of the Mais Mercados programme (€7.5 million).
