Contact Points

The main aim is to serve as a Contact Point for all interested stakeholders in their issues connected to the Cleantech industries.

Over the last 12 months, the Polish contact point supported SME from Poland and other South Baltic countries via organizing or contributing to the following offers:

• Co-organizing the 2nd Baltic Clean Technology conference (this time in Szczecin) with around 140 attendees and preparing the lasting operation of the BCT
• The 2nd study trip, which took place in March 2019 in France. It was devoted to the topic "Passive Houses"
• Organisation and implementation of cross-border project development workshops and cleantech talks for SME’s from Germany, Lithuania, Sweden and Poland.
• Participation in two international sectoral events, where the cross-border network of Cleantech SME was presented to potential customers and cooperation partners. 
• The provision of latest information from the Cleantech market via the market research tool offered by the Clean Tech International project.
• Presentation of latest business activities, market potentials and development contexts mainly in the Polish Cleantech sector in the context of the webinars offered by the contact points of the project Clean Tech International.
• General awareness raising measures among SME, aiming at presenting the green technology benefits.

During the 2017 and 2018 appointed Contact Points have conducted a number activities for the benefit of the SME’s both in the region and outside. After thorough needs analyses of the companies from the Cleantech sector we have started developing our products and gradually offering to the SME’s. In the early 2017 all CP’s made a number of visits to all CP countries in order to familiarize with their counterparts, they visited companies and met with their representatives to communicate the idea of the Contact Point in the Cleatech project. The companies were informed that if they have any business, legal and other related issues about the foreign country they should contact respective CP. That year was also a time of successfully organized 1st Cleantech Conference in Rostock with around 150 attendees mostly SME’s representing the sector. It was a great opportunity for the international networking. Other activities that attracted more SME’s were the Cleantech talk and project development workshop where a company could share their project ideas with the virtual international audience. Another attractive event that gathered great interest was the study trip – a three day event during which all the participants enjoyed a number of visits in Danmark related to e-mobility. Eventually, we have created a website with the company database. Being on the database gives an opportunity of free promotion during many international events. The website also offers a list of frequently uploaded articles related to the cleantech sector, .that could be a source of the valuable knowledge and inspiration. And last but definitely not least the webinars- 5 interactive meetings with different topic also gathered a lot of interest. All this activities are meant to be continued for the next year of the project lifetime us well after its completion.
