This event will take place on March 3rd at the Everglades Hotel in Derry and offer a range of opportunities for businesses to collaborate, innovate and prosper.
By using the technical or commercial knowledge and expertise of others your idea or product could be improved and get to market much sooner with the help of Enterprise Europe Network (EEN). From 2008 – 2014 EEN helped 2.8 million SMEs to innovate and grow internationally.
At this event we are particularly interested in companies within the creative industry sector who want to work with others in the sector. However the event is for anyone interested in creating partnerships to grow their business internationally. And you will be able to pitch your idea at the event.
This event will offer collaboration opportunities that may range from digital software, through film and television, to arts and crafts with companies from Ireland and Europe. You will also hear about the range of EU funding support available.
