Digital Marketing

Under this scheme, eligible companies can apply for co-financing of direct expenses towards international digital marketing undertaken in a given calendar year in order to promote the company’s products or services in pre-defined markets abroad.

The eligible support measures are:

  • Direct advertising on the main search engines (such as Google Ads or Bing Ads), as long as the expense is targeting an international market;
  • Direct advertising on the main social medial platforms (such as LinkedIn or Facebook) as long as the expense is targeting an international market;
  • Other online platforms with direct digital advertising capabilities such as Taboola, Outbrain, Capterra, Reddit, Quora and others, especially industry and audience-specific online platforms.
  • Digital design costs (visuals, graphics, etc.) of the marketing campaign.

You can see what companies are eligible for support in the Guidelines found below, which also contain more information about the scheme in “Section 6.6. Schedule F: Digital Marketing”. Eligible companies may apply using the application form below.
