How to make the most out of a business partnering trip to the UK - Smart Cities focus

This webinar is part of a series of webinars prepared for SMEs participating in our Global Innovation Partnership Programme T-DEB. You can read more about our programme at https://tdebproject.com/.


With a focus on Smart Cities and innovation and business across borders, this preparatory webinar helped SMEs to prepare for a business partnering trip. The webinar covers: 


- Identification of target audiences (Who will receive your outreach email?)

- Productively researching companies (through web search, trade association directories, Linkedin, etc.) 

- How to best write a cold outreach email template and the importance of follow-ups (to be at the forefront of people’s minds)

- Business culture insights (do’s and don'ts)

- Preparing partnering materials targeting potential partners to explore synergies
