The Italian Trade Agency, in coordination with the Italian Embassy in London and in collaboration with the Executive Office of the Italian Constituency at the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), is organising a series of informative webinars dedicated to the opportunities offered by the EBRD to Italian companies.
The initiative aims to strengthen knowledge of EBRD’s procurement tools and to support the competitive positioning of Italian companies in accessing tenders and projects financed by the Bank. The first webinar is scheduled for 16 February 2026 at 11:00 a.m. and will focus on EBRD’s Public Procurement opportunities.
The companies and associations interested are invited to read this detailed information circular and to fill in the registration form available at the following link:

WHY PARTICIPATE
The initiative is part of the significant opportunities offered by the procurement of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), which awards on average more than 200 tenders per year for a total value of more than EUR 2 billion. The webinar represents a concrete opportunity to deepen participation modalities, requirements and operational tools, as well as to interact directly with EBRD’s Procurement Officers and to learn about the support services provided by the Italian Trade Agency.
The EBRD operates in more than 30 countries across Central and Eastern Europe, the Balkans, the Mediterranean, Central Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa, with an annual investment volume of more than EUR 16 billion, largely devoted to public infrastructure works in the areas of transport, energy, water, environment and municipal infrastructure. The Bank also plays a central role in the reconstruction of critical infrastructure in Ukraine.
Italian companies are actively participating in EBRD procurement, recording results and increasing success rates. Also in light of the evolution of the Bank’s approach – increasingly geared to technical quality, innovation and sustainability, as well as to early dialogue with the market – Italian companies are particularly well placed to further strengthen their presence in the tender procedures funded by EBRD.
