Find your international partner

How to find the right business partner or customer in another country, being a small company with limited resources? Acquiring new business contacts abroad is time-consuming and resource intensive. One approach that could save you time, but not necessarily costs, is to turn to a specialised agency to help you make contact with potential partners.

Enterprise Europe Network offers you the international EEN database where you can search for potential partners in all sectors free of charge. There are both suppliers or distributors for exports and international partners for research and innovation. There are currently more than 6,000 requests and offers from all over the world in the database.

Through this database, EEN aims to promote the internationalisation and innovation of European SMEs and cross-border partnerships. In South Tyrol, the Chamber of Commerce and the NOI Techpark are your contacts.
