Europe for Business can help you participate in business development initiatives supported or facilitated by the EU.

What kind of initiatives?
It isn't just rules that come out of the European Commission. There are a range of initiatives: some are designed to facilitate commercial networking, such as Europartenariat events and Interprise, which help businesses create partnerships for cross-border trade.

There are incentives and exchanges for professionals in a range of fields, including lawyers, young people, and those wanting experience of commercial life in Japan.

In relation to countries outside the EU (e.g Central and Eastern Europe, and Latin America), there are various programmes to promote partnerships and create commercial opportunities.
