Every two years Global Connect is the host to the world of international trade in Stuttgart. The Forum for Exports and Internationalisation brings together companies which are interested in foreign markets, and experts who provide information on how to get started in international business. The 4th Global Connect will be the meeting point for export and country managers, as well as business promoters and providers of export services.

EIBN participated in the Global Connect together with its ASEAN partners under the EU-ASEAN Business Networks in a joint booth. The team successfully introduced the potential market opportunities in Indonesia and ASEAN, as well as introduced EIBN and its ASEAN partners as a platform for assisting and supporting EU companies interested in entering Indonesia and ASEAN markets.
