The main goal of Virtual B2B Matchmaking IV within the “Fit for Partnership with Germany” Programme  is to provide an opportunity to its participants – alumni of the Programme – to expand their foreign economic activities, find potential partners, and establish strong and reliable business connections. We are sure that the alumni of the Programme will easily get along and easily understand each other!

The Cooperation contacts exchange involves Programme alumni of all years and from all partner countries, that is 17 countries with more than 17,000 alumni.

The first event to establish contacts between alumni from different participating countries of the Manager Training Programme “Fit for Partnership with Germany” was held online in October 2020, and in 2021 two more Cooperation contacts exchanges were held, as a result of these events:

• • 296 alumni – registered on the platform from
  • 14 European and Asian countries representing the following industries:
  • light industry, construction, services, instrument construction, chemical industry, furniture industry,
  • more than 60 online negotiations,
  • more than 90% of participants rated the event as successful and intend to participate in future exchanges
  • The matchmaking is not limited to a specific economy sector, which makes it possible to build entire networks. We have not yet discovered all of our countries’ and each other’s potential.

Russia’s war against Ukraine has been going on for a year now, and even in these extremely difficult conditions, Ukrainian business continues to operate. After the start of the full-scale invasion, Ukrainian entrepreneurs had to face extremely difficult problems in their personal and professional lives at the same time. Despite all the challenges faced by the country, according to preliminary estimates of the Ministry of Economy of Ukraine, according to the trade balance methodology, the export of goods to EU countries in 2022 increased by 4.2% compared to 2021, and amounted to about 28 billion dollars

In Ukraine, we have suppliers of shoes to Italy, cheeses to Holland, skis and ski equipment to all over the world. We produce not only raw materials, but we have high value-added goods and innovative products. Ukraine provides Boeing, Airbus and Bombardier with engineering services, cooperates with NASA and Elon Musk.

We are confident that during the matchmaking we will discover a lot of interesting things and will definitely find new business partners.

The Programme organizes and conducts the matchmaking in cooperation with Chernihiv CCI.

Our partner’s experience shows that such an event becomes especially relevant in limited mobility conditions, but accessible due to the use of modern tools connecting continents and countries.

Thus, Chernihiv CCI has already connected 173 enterprises from 30 countries, conducted more than 250 B2B meetings.

Virtual B2B Matchmaking IV for alumni of the Programme “Fit for Partnership with Germany” will contribute to the international cooperation and networking.
