At the 1st Danube Financing Dialogue in Vienna, international experts will gather to discuss vital issues concerning the financing of SME projects in the Region. Furthermore the event will serve as a matchmaking opportunity for regional SMEs and Financial Institutions. SME representatives will have the unique opportunity to identify suitable financing sources for investment projects and present their projects to participating representatives of Financial Institutions. In turn, Financial Institutions will have the opportunity to identify new fields of business.
Participation will be by application only. Participants will include:
- SMEs with eligible investment projects. Conditions: relevance to the priorities of the EUSDR and one or more policy fields (transport, energy, culture, environment, technologies, education or security) and a financing volume of 1 to 25 million EUR.

SME representatives will have the possibility to schedule a face-to-face meeting with financiers in order to present their project and to discuss financing possibilities. As for the Financial Institutions, - the conference provides the opportunity to present financial instruments to potential clients in face-to-face meetings. Therefore, the Financial Institutions will each set up a stall to present their institution and products.
2. Poster Session:
SMEs will have the opportunity to present their projects to the invited financiers on a poster, in the so-called “market place”. The Poster session will provide an overview of selected projects to the Financial Institutions.
