Support for startups and MSMEs
How we provide backing to a vital sector
We specialise in providing financing, strategic business advice, training, mentoring, networking and other non-financial services, to high-potential startups and micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs), across the EBRD's regions.
Our integrated programmes and finance offerings equip entrepreneurs with the tools and capital they need to drive innovation, digital transformation and sustainable businesses practices, while scaling up their operations.
At the EBRD, we recognise that startups and MSMEs are the engines of economic growth. By supporting these enterprises, we can help build robust, resilient, green and inclusive economies, with vibrant communities and meaningful job opportunities.
