Transnational Business Matching Database

 

Are you thinking about starting up or expanding your international business activities? STIMUTRAN-SME can help you with finding new international business partners. Placing your Transnational Business Cooperation profile in the STIMUTRAN-SME Matching Database is the first step in this process. 

 

The STIMUTRAN-SME project has developed an extensive business cooperation profile for SMEs. The profile is an important instrument because it gives summary of your company, information about the type of cooperation which is asked for and the technical/organisational/financial requirements for your potential business partner.

This business cooperation profile includes some of the following elements:

  • Type of company
  • Turn over
  • R&D activities
  • Products/services
  • International business cooperation experience
  • Partner profile
  • Languages spoken

After you have filled in and saved your profile in the STIMUTRAN-SME matching database you are ready to start with participating in The STIMUTRAN-SME Matching Events.

 

STIMUTRAN-SME Matching Events are an exclusive opportunity to meet and match successfully with SMEs in the North West Europe and beyond.

In 2007 we will organise business matching events in the United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands/Belgium, Ireland and Luxemburg.

 

Unique features of STIMUTRAN-SME Matching Events:

  • Expert assistance before, during and after your matching activities (i.e. export plan, product requirements, business cultures, market surveys etc.);
  • Meeting new business partners at large international trade fairs and events;
  • Meeting several potential partners in a short period of time;
  • Participants are fully prepared for transnational business activities; guaranteeing an optimal follow up after matching;
  • Matching based on transnational business profiles focusing on export readiness, innovative capacity and geographical location;
  • Matching database with fully automated matching system;
  • There is no application charge for companies to be listed on the STIMUTRAN-SME Matching Database.

Participation in the matchmaking events can be regarded as the most effective way of finding new (international) business partners. STIMUTRAN-SME organizes five Matching Events in 2007.

 

If you are interested in participating in one of the STIMUTRAN-SME Matching Events, please fill in and save your company cooperation profile or please contact your regional STIMUTRAN-SME partner.
