A new call for proposals has been launched in Moldova as part of a grant program aimed at promoting exports and expanding the presence of local companies in foreign markets. Industry associations proposing joint international promotion projects—including trade shows, business missions, and marketing initiatives—will be eligible for support.

The program will cover a range of environmental and agronomic measures, and the funding terms and list of eligible recipients may prove particularly important for farmers and agricultural organizations.

The Investment Agency has completed the selection process for the second BRIDGE Export 2026 competition: support will be provided to several industry associations whose projects are aimed at promoting Moldovan exports and entering new foreign markets. The program includes trade shows, business forums, market research, and B2B meetings, and the total funding and geographic scope of the initiatives indicate a significant expansion of the export agenda.
