European Business Support Network due to be launched!

The Business Development Platform that the twin-projects North Sea Supply Connect and Baltic Supply have been working on over the past year has taken shape in the soon to be launched European Business Support Network. The Network will provide on- and offline services to support European SMEs in their search for new international markets, partners and suppliers. At this moment, project partners are very busy defining their service concepts that will be offered by the network to businesses in their respective regions. The online Network, called Eubizz.net is expected to go live by mid-february.

The Eubizz.net will be hosted by one of the Baltic Supply partners, the Hanse-Parlament from Hamburg, Germany. It is a very apt choice as the Hanse-Parlament , - being from Hamburg, - is geographically represented in both the Baltic and the North Sea Region. They will continue to host the website after the run-time of the project in 2013. The services such as joint events, matchmaking, self assessment and trainings as well as information on tendering procedures have been further developed over the last months – jointly by Baltic Supply and North Sea Supply Connect partners. The best practice is already evident: Latvian companies found business partners in Germany, a Dutch knowledge institute was linked to a UK company and a Danish company found new suppliers in Latvia. It shows that personal contacts are what really matters!

This is why we invite you - all organizations offering business support in your regions - to join our European Business Support Network and gain the benefits for your companies!
