Partners for International Business - PIB

The Partners for International Business (PIB) programme allows Dutch businesses to enter into a public-private partnership to realise their international ambitions. Doing business abroad is not always easy. You may be confronted with trade barriers, a lack of knowledge among local governments and businesses or restrictive local laws. Joining forces with other businesses in your industry and the Dutch government puts you in a better position.

Ukraine Partnership Facility – UPF

As a result of the Russian invasion, Ukraine needs a great deal of support. Often, it is not possible to finance reconstruction projects via the commercial sector. To provide support, the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs has established UPF. This programme supports damage repair and reconstruction projects for the public and private sectors. UPF aims to help the sustainable recovery of Ukraine's economy and society in the water, healthcare and agricultural sectors. Where possible, projects should improve the position of vulnerable groups such as women and young people.
