Opportunities of the Union

 
How can you benefit from the development opportunities offered by the EU ? In Lorraine, organizations and tools help SME-SMI to participate in large European programs.
 
 
Inform yourself about Europe
 
"Europe is within your business's reach", is the slogan of Enterprise Europe Network (EEN). The Lorraine team of this network informs SME on regulatory questions and European policies, accompanies the research of technological or commercial partners…
The PASTEL (European Technical Assistance Platform in Lorraine) also helps people in Lorraine to develop projects financed by European programs for the 2007-2013 period. Finally, the European engineering departments of the Universities of Nancy and Metz  organize information days open to entrepreneurs.  
 
 
Set-up a European project
 
Scheme proposed by the Regional Council, the Initiation to transnational cooperation  covers up to 50% of SME’s expenses during their first meetings and discussions with future partners (mission, study, translation… costs).
As for the Technological Partnership Aid , it finances expenditures linked to the search for partners, preparation of agreements and the drafting of the application.
