Participation in the eighth edition of the Women Value Company - Intesa Sanpaolo award begins, born from the collaboration with the Marisa Bellisario Foundation and aimed at all small and medium-sized enterprises capable of promoting gender equality, encouraging the development of employment and female entrepreneurship as well as than to support the diversity and innovation of the production system.
For the 2024 edition of Women Value Company, in line with the Pnrr missions, Intesa Sanpaolo is making one billion euros of credit available to promote and support the start-up and strengthening of female entrepreneurship and maximize the contribution of women to the economic and social development of the country.
The bank supports female businesses that start a new business or that invest in strengthening their business, acting on areas such as digitalisation, innovation and the expansion of skills.
The proposal adds to the already existing solutions to promote investments towards the objectives of the Pnrr and female entrepreneurship.
The bank has also structured an offer of short, medium and long-term financing and signature commitments to facilitate access to state benefits, including the women's enterprise fund.
"Women, gender equality and welfare are at the center of attention of our Group and of the Women ValueCompany award, which enhances the most active and sensitive SMEs in these areas", says Virginia Borla, head of business governance at Banca dei Territori of Intesa Sanpaolo.
"We are happy to continue this extraordinary journey among small and medium-sized Italian excellences with Intesa Sanpaolo", explains Lella Golfo, president of the Marisa Bellissario Foundation.
