The Enterprise Europe Network at Cork Chamber is linked into a broader Network that manages Europe's largest online database of business opportunities.

It’s possible for local Cork based businesses (both members and non-members of Cork Chamber) to search for business or academic partners to manufacture, distribute, co-develop and supply your products, ideas and services.

Recently, we have found that the network is increasingly useful for strategic sourcing requests in a bid to save time and costs and improve supply chains.
