Network development

Network development involves actively strengthening and expanding the existing network further. To foster our relationship with companies and the relevant stakeholders, we organize regular events where these groups can come together to network and exchange ideas. 

Another goal is to support the foundation of a professional and independent platform with a focus extending beyond the region.
