At Finnpartnership’s application workshop, the participants learn how to apply Business Partnership Support, and what types of projects are eligible for the financial grant. The participants also learn about Finnpartnership’s B2B Matchmaking service and the business opportunities created by the Global Gateway campaign.

The application workshops introduce the participants to the financing services of Business Finland’s Developing Markets Platform and Fingo’s services to promote cooperation between companies and non-governmental organisations.

Furthermore, companies’ environmental and social impacts when operating in developing markets are reviewed. The participants are given tips for identifying development impacts in their business operations and communicating them to the public.

The application workshops are intended for operators eligible for Business Partnership Support, i.e. Finnish or Finnish-owned companies and organisations. Application workshops are held in Finnish and English on alternate months. See the dates for all the upcoming workshops here.
