The Three Seas Initiative Investment Fund supports entrepreneurs in expanding export and their business in Eastern and Central European countries. At the moment the fund is estimated to have a value of €1.2 billion euros and it has the potential to grow to €5 billion.

Kaljulaid said the fund is another possibility for Baltic companies to acquire funding and also to invest.

"The three seas region has led the economic growth of the European Union for years. In order for this trend to continue we need smart infrastructure investments that help us realize new business models and export growth," she said.
