EU Gateway │Business Avenues is an initiative funded by the European Union. Building on over 25 years of successful experience, it helps European companies to establish long-lasting business collaborations in Asia.
The new programme launched in 2016 will offer business missions to Korea, South East Asia and China.

Each business mission accommodates up to 50 European companies.

• Green Energy Technologies
• Environment & Water Technologies
