Capitalisation to support the trade fair system
Capitalisation in support of the trade fair system (no longer operational since 29/12/2021)
We support the financial stability of institutions or companies that organise major international trade fairs.
Who is it for?
Trade fair organisations or companies that organise trade fairs of international importance, established as limited companies, which have filed at least two financial statements for two complete financial years with the Companies Register. The requirement for access is to have organised or hosted, in the four years prior to the date of submission of the funding application, at least one international event/trade fair listed in the AEFI calendar of international events*.
How it works
The financing is aimed at improving or maintaining the level of capital strength (ratio of net equity to net fixed assets) at the time of the financing request (‘entry level’). At the end of the grace period, the number of international events/trade fairs (listed in the AEFI calendar) organised/hosted by the beneficiary company in the year prior to the submission of the application will also be verified, with the aim of confirming and/or increasing, at least in one year of the grace period, the number of international events/fairs organised/hosted by the beneficiary company.
Maximum amount eligible for financing: €10,000,000
Duration of financing: 6 years, including 2 years of grace period.
