NANOTECH Cluster SME Mission
ABOUT THE MISSION
The Nanotech Cluster/SME mission will give you free access to the  International Nanotechnology Exhibition and Conference in Tokyo. During the fair (3 days) you will attend  B2B meetings and meet with Japanese visitors.
In order to maximize your partnering opportunities, you will be able to exhibit in  the EU-Japan Centre booth.
A month before the mission, an online pre-departure briefing will help you prepare for the mission to ensure you get the most out of it.
Professional interpreters will be on hand during the trade fair to help you communicate with potential Japanese business partners. Based on materials you provide, the EU-Japan Centre will arrange Japanese-language posters to promote your product at the EU Delegation booth at the trade fair.
