Introducing international start-up services: Business Joensuu
Do you know which startup support exists in the region of North Karelia (Finland) around the city of Joensuu? Maybe you have a business or start-up idea of your own, and need advice and funding to get started? Or are you not from North Karelia, but look for expansion or business cooperation?
Join us for an introduction to showcase current international business and network cooperation, existing services for start-ups in Joensuu (in Finnish and English), and let one of the current companies in the start-up programme tell more about their experiences.
After the presentations we have time to answer your questions, hear your ideas and maybe have a cooperation with your business, or brainstorm with your acceleration programme to help bridging regions and companies to new markets.
