SUMMARY:Have you already considered doing business in Switzerland?
DESCRIPTION:When? 14th November 2023\, 14-15h (Finnish time)Where? Online (webinar)\nRegistration? at latest on 12th November 2023\nSwitzerland may perhaps not be the first market that comes into the mind of a Finnish exporter. It is however worthwhile to have a look at it. Being an open economy\, characterised by a high degree of flexibility and a clear focus on sustainability\, innovation and high quality\, the Swiss market may offer very interesting potential for Finnish products and services. Is it then all so simple to approach Swiss potential partners? Before starting the prospection\, a number of things need to be taken into account though\, especially because Switzerland is not a member of the European Union. These issues will be discussed during a webinar. Join this webinar organised by the Finland Chamber of Commerce together with Prodigo\, a Swiss business development company on 14th November 2023 from 14 to 15:00 pm.\nRight after the event\, you also have the possibility to have a face-to-face meeting (20 min. per meeting) with representatives from Prodigo.\nHere are a few themes that will be covered :    1. The current business dynamics in Switzerland2. Opportunities for Finnish companies3. Tips and tricks on how to approach Swiss prospects  \nAbout the speaker\nMichel Patteet has built up a professional career with over 25 years of experience in international trade promotion. Before creating his own business development company Prodigo (www.prodigo.ch)\, Michel was active as Trade Commissioner for Belgium in Switzerland during seven years\, whereby he acquired an in-depth knowledge of the Swiss market and created a vast network of economic actors in many sectors. Meanwhile\, Prodigo has already helped customers from 15 countries to set foot in Switzerland\, including from Finland.\nIn previous functions\, Michel worked for a United Nations’ trade promotion initiative in Geneva and was Liaison Officer for World Bank procurement in Brussels.
