The Association for the Development of Electronic Communications and Innovative Technologies (ACETI), as the coordinating organisation of EDIH of Moldova, has signed a grant agreement with the Innovate Moldova Programme, funded by Sweden and the United Kingdom. The agreement provides for partial co-financing of the costs incurred by the first 40 SMEs served by EDIH of Moldova under the Start Digital 360° service package.

Initially, the Start Digital 360° package provides services worth a total of EUR 8,357, 50% of which is covered through EU co-financing. This means that the beneficiary is required to contribute EUR 4,178.50. Under the agreement signed with Innovate Moldova, the own contributions of the first 40 companies will be reduced to varying degrees through the additional co-financing provided by the Programme.

Specifically, 40 companies will benefit from partial coverage of the costs of Digital Maturity Assessment and Needs Mapping services. The donor will also cover the costs of Matchmaking and Brokerage services for 15 companies and Financial Advisory services for 10 companies. In addition, 6 companies will receive support covering the costs of Basic Digital Skills services, while 5 companies will benefit from Business Mentoring services.

Through this support, the Innovate Moldova Programme helps companies in the Republic of Moldova gain better access to expertise, skills and digital solutions, encouraging technology adoption and the development of more competitive businesses.
