Two-Day Workshop by the Hellenic Development Bank (HDB) and Bpifrance – Hellenic Development Bank

The Hellenic Development Bank (HDB) and the French Development Bank Bpifrance continue to enhance and expand their successful collaboration with a two-day workshop held at the HDB offices.

During the workshop, there was an exchange of views, knowledge, and best practices. Special emphasis was placed on the upcoming strategic and digital steps for the HDB as a driving force for connecting Greek businesses, with the goal of boosting their competitiveness and international outreach. The discussion also focused on the ways and methods to leverage the new digital platform InnoAgora, launched by HDB, which is hosted on the globally renowned EuroQuity platform by Bpifrance. EuroQuity currently has more than 20,000 members. For the first time, a Greek organization is participating in EuroQuity, aiming to create a professional and specialized network of investors and entrepreneurs.

The collaboration with Bpifrance is particularly important, as it contributes to the development of new cross-border tools to support Greek entrepreneurship.

The HDB acts as a lever for utilizing national and EU resources, through co-financing, co-investments, and collaborations that promote innovation within Greek enterprises.

The central strategy of the Hellenic Development Bank is to support Greek SMEs in their innovation efforts through various and innovative financial tools, helping to boost their international competitiveness and presence.
