Trade mission to Japan, with focus on public procurements
Public tenders in Japan are an attractive but too often overlooked opportunity for EU companies. Moreover, as an EU company, public tenders in Japan are more accessible to you due to the Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA).
However, winning such a tender as a foreign company requires thorough preparation. Luckily EU funded project GOOSE, under the leadership of Flanders Investment & Trade (FIT) in Japan is happy to support you in finding local partners, overcoming the language barrier, handling your administrative responsibilities and, of course, finding the tenders themselves.
That’s why we’re organizing a physical mission to Japan within the framework of GOOSE project, together with 4 project partners. We will put you in touch with local companies and institutions which are vital partners for winning these tenders. FIT’s local office in Tokyo will also be available both during and after the mission so you will be able to count on local support.
The mission is for companies from ICT, green economy, smart health, and smart city sectors.
TIME AND PLACE
The mission will take place on 16-18th April 2024 in Tokyo.
3 days program in Tokyo includes seminar on public procurement to get insights on how to participate in Japanese tenders, meetings and/or visits to governmental institutions and B2B meetings with Japanese companies. The final agenda will be developed according to the needs of the participants and the availability of local organizations/institutions/companies.
For questions or more information, please contact Merit Fimberg-Espuch, merit@koda.ee
Please apply for the mission before 16th February 2024.
Companies from the four countries where the project partners are located (Estonia, Belgium, Spain, and Croatia) can participate. GOOSE consortium will reserve the right to choose the participants according to their readiness to enter the market and their suitability to the program. The GOOSE consortium consists of four European project partners: Agència per a la Competitivitat de l'Empresa (ACCIÓ), Spain; Estonian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Estonia; Flanders Invest & Trade (FIT), Belgium; Croatian Employers' Association (HUP), Croatia.
