One-to-one meetings can be pre-scheduled through the BIO One-on-One Partnering Platform or by contacting the H2020 – Overseas Trade Fairs Team directly at overseastradefairs@sme-instrument.otfs.eu .
A pitching session will also present the innovative products, services and technologies of the SMEs to a broad audience.
