欧洲投资银行10月16日发布消息，该行团队当天在奥地利西部蒂罗尔州考察一个阿尔卑斯旅游升级项目：家族企业蒂罗尔楚格峰缆车公司（Tiroler Zugspitzbahn）正投资1800万欧元，升级其在埃尔瓦尔德的设施，包括改造缆车登车区、新建一座约85个车位的地下停车场，并翻新滑雪道与造雪设备。欧洲投资银行通过蒂罗尔海波银行（Hypo Tirol Bank）为该项目提供350万欧元融资。
欧洲投资银行副行长卡尔·内哈默与蒂罗尔州州长安东·马特尔一同到场考察。内哈默表示，欧洲的融资要落到企业实际投资的地方，中小企业需要可靠的融资伙伴来提升竞争力、推进现代化。公司总经理弗朗茨·登格表示，公司是在为当地的长期发展投资，现代化基础设施与游客舒适度是重点。

EIB Backs €18 Million Zugspitze Cable Car Upgrade in Austrian Tyrol
The European Investment Bank said on October 16 that its team visited the western Austrian state of Tyrol to review an Alpine tourism upgrade project. Family-owned Tiroler Zugspitzbahn is investing €18 million in its facilities in Ehrwald, including an improved cable-car boarding area, an underground car park with around 85 spaces, and upgrades to ski slopes and snowmaking equipment. The EIB is contributing €3.5 million in financing channelled through Hypo Tirol Bank.
EIB Vice-President Karl Nehammer, who joined Tyrol Governor Anton Mattle on the visit, said European financing must reach the places where businesses invest, and that small and mid-sized companies need reliable financing partners to modernise and stay competitive. Managing Director Franz Dengg said the company is investing in the long-term development of its location, with modern infrastructure and guest comfort as priorities.
The cable car links Ehrwald, near the Austrian-German border, to the summit of Zugspitze, Germany's highest mountain at more than 2,900 metres, and the company also runs the Ehrwalder Alm ski resort. The financing forms part of a €100 million partnership between the EIB and Hypo Tirol Bank, with each institution contributing €50 million to support growth, innovation and sustainable investment by Austrian businesses.
