Our internalization services
We offer you a complementary support service to Awex to accelerate the success of your international projects.
First of all, we carry out a precise analysis of your needs and expectations (export diagnosis) and then guide you towards the most appropriate partner or solution:
- Networking with qualified players (in business, research, diplomacy, etc.) in several European countries and major export markets
- Organization of workshops on certain target countries, thematic missions and events on the fringes of major international trade fairs
- Tailored advice from experts in agri-food innovation
Move forward collectively on the international stage
We put you in touch with other members of the cluster in order to consider a collective approach on a given market: market research, international actions and missions, etc.
To this end, we created the BHIG, Belgian Health Ingredients Group or BHIG in 2012. The BHIG brings together 8 companies active in the field of nutrition and health.
