The Gateway to the Alps programme supports infrastructure and sustainable tourism in northern Albania. In its announcement of 30 April 2026, EIB Global confirmed €50 million in financing for Shkodra, Lezhë and Malësi e Madhe. The announcement describes a total programme investment value of €100 million.
The programme covers regional roads, urban spaces, public transport, water infrastructure and natural and cultural sites, helping connect the Albanian Alps with the Adriatic coast.
These figures describe a public infrastructure programme. They do not mean that private investors automatically qualify for funding or tax incentives. Individual opportunities require separate commercial, legal and financial assessment.
ME Group Albania can support an initial assessment, market-entry planning and coordination of the tax, legal and accounting work relevant to an investment in Albania.
