Projects implemented under the B2B programme
The private sector plays an irreplaceable role in international development. It offers local people new opportunities, transfers the necessary know-how and helps to improve the business environment in the countries in question. Development cooperation is another opportunity for the Czech private sector and offers companies the option to expand into new markets – and also in socially beneficial projects.
The objective set by the Czech Development Agency for 2017 was to support the highest possible number of mostly small- and medium-sized enterprises in developing market penetration as their activities and investments contribute to long-term development of local communities and fulfilment of Sustainable Development Goals (in particular Sustainable Development Goal No. 8: Promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all).
In 2017, within the framework of the Development Cooperation Programme for the Private Sector, Czech enterprises filed a total of 170 grant applications; 58 projects were supported. The total budget for private sector support was CZK 20 million, and more than CZK 27 million was drawn down and allocated to projects in Afghanistan, Angola, Armenia, Belarus, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Cambodia, Colombia, Costa Rica, Georgia, Ghana, Indonesia, Kyrgyzstan, Mali, Mexico, Moldova, Mongolia, Myanmar, Nicaragua, Peru, Serbia, Sri Lanka, Ukraine, Vietnam, and Zambia.
Thanks to the successful implementation of the B2B Programme, in 2017 a decision was taken to increase the budget for 2018. The programme also strives to support the continuity of companies’ commercial activities through collaboration with our partners Czech-Moravian Guarantee and Development Bank (ČMZRB) and the Export Guarantee and Insurance Corporation (EGAP).
