Trade Missions
Participation in national and international events where startups come into contact with investors, innovative technologies and relevant networks in a short time. Think of leading startup and deep tech events such as Slush and Hello Tomorrow.
Many startups have international ambitions, but lack access to the right people and insights. Trade Missions are making that step smaller. Instead of endless networking, in a few days, you'll meet exactly the parties that matter: from potential lead investors to strategic partners.
Why Trade Missions?
At major startup events, everything comes together: capital, knowledge and connections. For example, there are thousands of investors present at Slush alone. By participating in Trade Missions organized jointly with RVO, you increase your visibility and benefit from existing international networks and experience.
Trade Missions are there to help startups think and act internationally. You will not go out alone, but as part of a carefully selected group with shared ambitions.
Who is it for?
Startups with international ambitions that:
- want to scale up outside the Netherlands
- looking for international capital
- being active in technology- or innovation-driven markets
What's in it for you?
- Access to an international startup and investor network
- Chance of finding your next (lead) investor
- Insight into the latest market and technology developments
- More visibility in an international context
