In these challenging times, cross-fertilisation is key. The Exhibition Industry should look outside their usual sphere, discover different approaches and initiate new collaborations. The Enterprise Europe Network (EEN) could be such an example. EEN is a successful network established in 2008 by the European Commission. It is now active in more than 60 countries worldwide and it brings together 3,000 experts from more than 600 member organisations, assisting European SMEs in their internationalisation efforts. Same clients, same intents… how to create synergies?
