Netwerkevent SportTechMatch bij Tourstart in Düsseldorf
Het begint langzamerhand een traditie te worden: een matchmaking event voor partijen op het grensvlak van sport en technologie, tijdens het startevenement van de Tour de France. Na eerder Utrecht en Sheffield (VK) te hebben aangedaan, vindt de start van de Tour – en daarmee ook de SportTechMatch – dit jaar plaats in het Duitse Düsseldorf. Wellicht ook voor u een mooie gelegenheid om nieuwe inspiratie en contacten op te doen.
Vanwege het internationale karakter is onderstaande tekst in het Engels.
Sport Technology Matchmaking at the Grand Départ Düsseldorf
Enterprise Europe Network invites you to the SportTechMatch 2017, an international matchmaking event that will be organised on 30 June 2017 in the wake of the start of the Tour de France (‘Grand Départ’) in Düsseldorf, Germany.
The cluster Sports & Technology is involved in the organisation of this event.
The Tour de France is the biggest annual sports event in the world and it combines tradition with the latest innovations in several areas. The event will comprise a SportTechMatch conference, business meetings and a company mission on the day before. The intention will be to establish international partnerships between companies, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, as well as between companies, researchers and technologists.
Other partner regions are: The Netherlands, Flanders, Wallonia and Yorkshire.
SportTechMatch business meetings
The conference will be followed by a business meeting event organised by the Enterprise Europe Network. Companies, researchers and technologists will be offered a chance to meet potential foreign partners active in the field of cycling and other sports technologies. In pre-arranged face-to-face meetings they will have a chance to establish profitable new cooperation opportunities in business, technology transfer and research & development.

On the basis of accepted requests b2b meetings will be scheduled which will take place on June 30th.
