The project is carried out under the patronage of the Marshal of the Lesser Poland Voivodeship Witold Kozłowski

Media patron of TVP Cracow

Project co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund.

The main goals of the project are: economic development of the Małopolskie Voivodeship and support for Małopolska SMEs in their expansion into foreign markets.

The first of the indicated objectives will be achieved through a number of activities implemented under the project, including in particular:

• participation of 5 representatives of local government units in the Expo Real 2021 economic fair in Munich
• launching a website containing information on investment areas located in the province Małopolskie – the website will be available in three language versions
• conducting an advertising campaign in social media, television and trade magazines.

The implementation of the above-mentioned activities will allow the dissemination of the investment offer of the Małopolskie Voivodeship both in the country and abroad and will contribute to the promotion of the economic areas of the Małopolska Voivodeship on the domestic market and on foreign markets.

The second goal will be achieved through the participation of entrepreneurs from the SME sector from the Małopolskie Voivodeship in international economic fairs as an exhibitor / participant. Participation in the fair will be preceded by the participation of the project participants in cultural workshops, training on exports, consulting, among others in terms of creating an expansion strategy. In addition, it is planned to pair the entrepreneurs with representatives of the science sector, which will allow to generate a number of positive factors resulting from such cooperation, but also to strengthen the effectiveness of the participation of each of the entrepreneurs in the organized economic missions.

As part of the project, companies will be able to increase the number of their foreign contractors or start exporting activities, gain new orders, gain new business contacts, gain experience by participating in trade fairs, learn about the customs in Asian markets and gain knowledge about the offer of companies with a similar business profile in other countries.

At each fair, we offer travel costs, fair admission tickets, professionally built exhibition space, the possibility of promoting the company at fair events, translator services, and the organization of B2B meetings with potential investors.

All activities are carried out under the project “Implementation of a comprehensive project involving support for the Małopolska creative industry and ICT on international markets, and support for local government units in attracting investors” from the funds of the Regional Operational Program of the Małopolska Region 2014-2020, Priority axis 3 Entrepreneurial Małopolska, Measure 3.3 Internationalization of the Małopolska economy, Sub-measure 3.3.1 Economic promotion of Małopolska.
