This article aims to analyse the public financial support programmes for SME internationalisation available to Polish companies, with a view to identifying and potentially eliminating existing barriers. The three programmes under consideration are “Polish Tech Bridges,” “SME Internationalisation,” and “Go to Brand.” These programmes were evaluated based on certain criteria and then analysed for present barriers. The study was conducted via desk research of relevant project documentation, including the regulations. Each programme was compared across several aspects, which allowed the differences between them to be demonstrated. These aspects concerned support projects both at the stage of obtaining and implementing assistance and after project completion. The study revealed that these programmes are characterised by different – but not completely unique – advantages and disadvantages. Consequently, their appeal to companies varies depending on factors such as the company’s experience, location, or resources. Based on the identified disadvantages that constitute a barrier for SMEs to access finance, institutions could modify these programmes to enhance the accessibility of public support for SME internationalisation.
