We have close to 600 member organisations across the EU and beyond. They include chambers of commerce and industry, technology centres, universities and development agencies.
Our mission
Helping small companies make the most of the business opportunities in the European Union is the Enterprise Europe Network's mission.
You don't know where to start when looking for international partners? Don't have the resources to apply for EU funding? Have no idea who could finance your business? We're there to help. We want to make sure your company benefits from the EU Single Market as much as the big players do.
Our experts can help you find international business partners, source new technologies and receive EU funding or finance. And they can advise you on issues so diverse as intellectual property, going international, or EU law and standards.

The Network's Sector Groups organise brokerage events to help you reach technology transfer or cooperation agreements with other companies from your sector. They can also advise you on how to find partners to apply for EU-funded joint research projects.
