The European Commission (EC) organised the EU - South Med Matchmaking Event in the frame of ACHEMA expo on 10-14 June 2024.
The EU - South Med Matchmaking Event itself took place on-site in Frankfurt, Germany 11-13 June 2024.
The event was jointly organised by the European Commission through the European Cluster Collaboration Platform (ECCP), in collaboration with ANIMA Investment Network (for the Euromed Cluster Forward initiative), Enterprise Europe Network (EEN) and Chamber of Commerce and Industry Frankfurt am Main.
The EU - South Med Matchmaking Event brought together cluster organisations and SMEs from the European Union (EU), non-EU countries participating in the Single Market Programme/COSME Strand, and South Med countries (from Algeria, Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Egypt, France, Germany, Greece, Lithuania, Morocco, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Tunisia). It will provide participants an excellent chance to promote Cluster to Cluster (C2C), Cluster to Business (C2B), and Business to Business (B2B) collaborations.
The objectives for the participants included:
- Strengthening EU-South MED cluster cooperation for the benefit of their members, including a seminar, a cluster matchmaking event, and site visits.
- Identifying potential areas of common interest for cooperation and synergies, in terms of the sectoral, value chain, and market focus of their SMEs and other companies.
- Improving, through clusters, the EU-South MED industry and academia-industry collaboration in research, development, and innovation. For its members, the clusters will identify possible areas of RDI collaboration (academia, research organisations, industries...).
