Networking event ‘Boundless business, regional reinforcement’

In a world where talent knows no country borders, there are unprecedented opportunities for entrepreneurs who dare to collaborate across borders.

With “Boundless business, regional reinforcement”, we want to bring together entrepreneurs, employer organisations and policymakers to do just that: build a strong, future-oriented region (Eindhoven-Limburg) – with cross-border employment and entrepreneurship as leverage.

The aim of this event is simple: to encourage entrepreneurs to take the step across the border and to remove the obstacles that are currently holding them back. After all, regulations, cultural differences or administrative barriers should not be a reason to miss out on opportunities.

What can you expect?

  • Inspiring panel discussion with various participants.
  • Keynotes/testimonials from a company that already operates across the border.
  • Practical sessions on international regulations.
  • A unique opportunity to expand your network, both locally and internationally.
