Stijn Vos, Managing Director at Esdec
“The purpose of participating in this economic mission on Portugal was to strengthen our position there, especially given the Portuguese government support t.a.v. renewable energy. TRANSFER put us in contact with the right channels to our great satisfaction and thus interested us to also discuss other countries with them.”
Maarten Barthel, Business Manager Energy and Datacenters at Groningen Seaports
“Our focus in this visit to Portugal was to gain knowledge of the recycling and energy industry in Portugal with the aim of establishing long-term relationship management. TRANSFER put us in touch with key decision makers from these sectors and we also had several opportunities to network with potential Portuguese investors and among ourselves within the delegation. In short: a productive mission.”
Besides the matchmaking arrangements set up for each participant and the strengthening of ties with partners, the mutual contacts with the other participants often prove very valuable during a mission. So witness the interview with Emmaly Sibbes, public affairs manager at Fokker Technologies.
NPO has reported on the mission, with around minute 16 an impression of one of the dinners with TRANSFER Managing Director Gerald Baal and Hein Cuppen in conversation with their table partners. Click here
