About the 4th edition of the Tiina 2025 Program

The fourth edition is structured into two calls, aiming to select around 15 organizations in each and finance between 8 and 10 projects with loans ranging from €50,000 to €100,000, supported by an expanded annual fund of €500,000.

The second call closed on November 4 and is currently under evaluation.
