PROPEA projects are a shift from supporting one-off business operations of Czech companies to strengthening their permanent presence abroad. The programme aims to boost Czech firms that focus not only on exports, but also have an investment nature. Furthermore, PROPEA projects want to reduce the risks associated with entering demanding foreign markets and enhance the capacity of the Czech Republic to support a more permanent presence of companies on foreign markets.

Within the scope of the PROPEA programme, accredited expert entities operating abroad, with the support of the Embassy in the particular territory, can offer Czech companies that are already operating in the territory or are preparing to enter the target foreign market expert pro-export services:

· processing of a business plan for market entry or investment

· processing of legal, tax, financial, and legislative analyses

· launching of products on the market (assistance in negotiations with financial institutions, support in opening an account and securing financing, establishing a company, etc.)

· securing licenses, certifications, product registrations, and trademarks

· securing and verifying documentation for import/export and logistics

· creation and coordination of supplier and partner networks

· securing of promotional, marketing and PR services

· support during start of production/start-up assistance for companies from the service sector

· utilisation of technical facilities.

Further details on the project can be found on the website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Czech Republic – information on PROPEA. The maximum financial support for one PROPEA project implemented within one territory is 500,000 CZK for a calendar year.
