Challenge Fund

The Challenge Fund is a competitive financing facility which will be used as a means of addressing the issue of access to finance for innovative companies at all stages of development (idea, validation, growth and scale-up).

The vision of the Challenge Fund is boosting a vibrant innovation ecosystem by providing funding to the most promising companies to carry them through the ‘valley of death’ and scale up their innovative businesses, while looking for innovative solutions that leverage Albania know-how and create improvement and value, by introducing new ideas, methods, or products.
