An INTERPRISE event will be held in Seinäjoki, Finland, on 3 and 4 June 1998. The event is supported by the INTERPRISE programme of the European Commission, DG XXIII, which aims to encourage partnerships among industries or services in Europe, and offers SMEs an opportunity to initiate and develop cross-border business relationships.
Companies from four countries - Sweden, Denmark, Holland and the United Kingdom - in addition to Finland, will participate in the event, representing all the mechanical wood processing sectors. The event will focus in particular on joinery, furniture manufacture, and the manufacture of components, and will also cover the supply of raw materials and machinery.
This INTERPRISE event will offer SMEs a wide range of opportunities to:
- Seek potential business partners for buying and selling wood-based raw materials and products;
- Exchange production technology, know-how and seek new R&D possibilities involving Finnish and European companies, as well as specialized research institutes;
- Seek new business partners in Russia;
- Examine the potential to establish manufacturing or service industries near raw material sources.
This event also coincides with a furniture fair, where at least 150 companies will be exhibiting. To mark the centenary of the architect Alvar Aaltos, an exhibition on furniture design will also take place.
