EBN is involved in several EC funded projects aimed at fostering the internationalisation of European startups and SMEs through dedicated funding and networking schemes.

As an example, thanks to its involvement in both INNOWWIDE pilot scheme and ENRICH centres EBN proposes concrete support measures to grow European businesses internationally, more specifically outside Europe.

INNOWWIDE project is now running its 2^nd call for Viability Assessment Projects which will grant 60000€ to 70 European SMEs to assess viability of their services/products in third countries outside EU. The grant is aimed at allowing EU SMEs to work with trusted partners in the targeted country to run their VAP.

ENRICH centres in Brazil, China and the USA are the right players to introduce and connect EU companies with trusted partners in these countries.

Have a look to the recordings of the two webinars EBN run a few weeks ago to present these opportunities in more details and answer participants’ questions:

• Learn about INNOWWIDE call scope and requirements
• Discover how INNOWWIDE and ENRICH in BR can help you in entering the Brazilian market

Do not forget that the INNOWWIDE call is targeting all countries which are not EU member states or associated countries to H2020: you can count on EBN members in these countries to get connected to their innovation ecosystems: ITRI in Taiwan, IDEA in Russia, Berytech in Lebanon, just to mention a few of them!
