fi-compass Showcase 2026: Share Your Success Story
The fi-compass Showcase 2026 is now open for submissions, offering a unique opportunity for organisations across Europe to highlight successful projects financed through EU financial instruments. The initiative seeks examples that demonstrate how financial instruments are mobilising private investment, effectively combining loans or equity with grants, and creating long-term impact through the reuse of returned funds.
The competition is open to managing authorities, intermediate bodies, funds of funds, financial intermediaries, final recipients and other stakeholders involved in the implementation of financial instruments under EU shared management programmes, including ERDF, EAFRD, ESF+, EMFAF and AMIF.
Up to six finalists will be selected by the European Commission and the European Investment Bank and invited to present their projects at FI Campus 2026, taking place in Brussels from 30 November to 2 December 2026. Event participants will then vote to determine the winners.
To apply, organisations should prepare a short presentation of no more than five slides using the official template and submit it by 6 November 2026.
This is an excellent opportunity to showcase innovative solutions, gain visibility at the European level, and share valuable lessons with the wider financial instruments community.
