After a year of stop due to the effects of Covid19, international trade fairs are finally about to restart and the time has come to warm up the engines and prepare as best as possible for the next exhibitions, in order to avoid being caught unprepared, right now that the post-pandemic recovery is in sight. And, thanks to SIMEST incentives, you can cover the costs for the creation of Nardi’s ecological cardboard stands. Let’s see how, point by point!
SIMEST will stipulate non-repayable or subsidized loans for participation in fairs and exhibitions. The project is part of the promotion of the internationalization process of Italian companies.
SIMEST is a company of the Cassa depositi e prestiti Group that follows Italian companies throughout the cycle of expansion abroad: since 1991 it has been a partner in the growth of companies that decide to expand abroad and precisely with this in mind it supports participation in trade fairs, exhibitions, system missions and promotional events to promote Italian businesses on new international markets
These are the expenses eligible for funding:
There are quite a few, but obviously the most attractive thing is the possibility of obtaining a share of the non-repayable loan (there is, however, a limit of 800 thousand euros of total public subsidies granted by SIMEST). In addition to this portion, there is the reimbursement of the remaining amount at a subsidized rate (equal to 10% of the EU reference rate). Thanks to these investments you will be able to improve your visibility among industry buyers and strengthen your brand internationally, and promote your products in new markets.
