The EU Business Hub - Japan and the Republic of Korea invite you to participate in their new programme and upcoming business missions.

The EU Business Hub is an EU-funded programme which supports EU companies active in the green and low-carbon technologies; digital solutions; and healthcare and medical equipment sectors to enter the two Asian markets by organising 10 business missions to Japan and 10 business missions to the Republic of Korea over the next four years.

• Strategic coaching on market opportunities and local business culture.
• Individual matchmaking with a personalised schedule of B2B meetings with local companies.
• Targeted promotion through the exhibition of the company's products and services.
• Logistical support and assistance throughout the mission, from exhibition setup to promotional materials.
• Financial support with a maximum EU contribution of €1,000 for accommodation costs (4 nights, one room per company).
