Virtual business initiation event for German and Indian companies in the field of education and training (products and services)
A project-related promotion initiative within the framework of the BMWi Foreign Market Entry Programme for predominantly small and medium-sized German enterprises (SMEs)
The German Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWi) aims at providing this perfect opportunity for you to network online in a matchmaking event!
On behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWi), ICU Business Consulting GmbH in cooperation with Icunet Consulting India Private Ltd. will launch a digital business initiation in the field of education and training for the target market India. The aim for both sides is to identify potential for cooperation and share knowledge and further market insights.
The current situation and the effects of the global corona crisis do not allow physical implementation on site. That’s why the whole event will take place as a variety of virtual sessions spread over a period of two weeks, from October 26th until November 06th, 2020.
This is a project-related promotion initiative within the framework of the BMWi Foreign Market Entry Programme for predominantly small and medium-sized German enterprises (SMEs).
The business initiation will be supported by the trade association iMOVE: Training – Made in Germany, an initiative of the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research.
