MEOH
« Lorsque nous avons été contactés par les experts d’Enterprise Europe Brussels, nous ne connaissions pas ces réseaux partenaires. Nous les avons donc rencontrés et ils nous ont suivis depuis le début. Sans Entreprise Europe Network, nous n’aurions pas pu être là où nous sommes aujourd’hui. Le conseil pour les financements, la mise en relation avec des partenaires et l’accompagnement au quotidien, tout cela nous a beaucoup aidé ». Benjamin Carnec, Conseiller TIC pour Enterprise Europe Brussels (EEB) chez hub.brussels et responsable du suivi de MEOH chez Entreprise Europe Network.
