Consortia of American Businesses in Eastern Europe

The CABEE program, administered by the U.S. Department of Commerce,
provides grants of up to $500,000 to each of five non-profit consortia of
for-profit companies to cover up to one-half of costs of starting-up
commercial operations in Eastern Europe. Launched under the American
Business and Private-Sector Development Initiative for Eastern Europe,
CABEE is intended to help overcome difficulties faced by small and
medium-sized firms in entering Eastern Europe markets. CABEE was
established in June 1991.
