Aid for Collaborating Entities (Ayudas a Entidades Colaboradoras)

Ayudas a Entidades Colaboradoras is ICEX's channel for sector-led export support, with applications routed through Spanish sector associations and export federations rather than directly through the agency. It funds trade fair pavilions, missions, and promotion activity for companies operating in the named sectors. The 2026 structure is organised by industrial subcommission and reaches agrifood, creative industries, infrastructure, fashion and textile, publishing, automotive, defence, and aerospace. Eligibility is limited to Spanish companies in the relevant sector, and each call is handled through a base document and an inscription form at the coordinating association. The master deadline for the 2026 full-year calls is 1 December 2026. This route suits firms that already belong to the relevant sector body and want a co-ordinated export presence rather than a standalone grant. The day-to-day administration sits with the collaborating entity, while ICEX sets the framework and approves the calls. Applicants do best when their sector fit is clear, their association relationship is current, and the proposed activity fits the subcommission window.

Each grant below is a distinct funding opportunity with its own eligibility, scope, and deliverables.
