HOW IT WORKS

Fill in a short profile to describe your organisation, a cooperation profile to describe the cooperation you are offering or the project partner you are looking for and choose your responsible EEN/ assisting network (if applicable).

Your profile will be published in the online catalog of the matchmaking event where registered companies can select your profile and request one-on-one meetings with you. Of course, you also have access to these profiles and you can select and book meetings with partners of interest.
