The business matchmaking event Baltic Business Arena will take place as an integrated part of the Summit and Annual Forum. At the Baltic Business Arena small and medium sized companies from the entire Baltic Sea Region will have the opportunity to book face-to-face meetings with other companies in a specially designed meeting arena.
The first event of this kind was arranged in Stockholm in June last year where 70 companies from 11 countries performed over 350 meetings.
The main business areas of the 2012 matchmaking event are clean-tech, renewable energy, sustainable construction, life science and Information and Communication Technologies (ICT).
The Baltic Business Arena 2012 is supported by Enterprise Europe Network, the Swedish Agency for Economic and Regional Growth and the Swedish Institute.
