Enterprise Europe Network (BAB)

The Enterprise Europe Network Bremen, coordinated by the Bremer Aufbau-Bank (BAB), offers small and medium-sized enterprises as well as start-ups free services to strengthen innovation capacity and internationalization. In the Bremen region, participants benefit from individual advice on EU and state funding programs, support with application submissions, and feedback on project documents. Through the EEN cooperation platform, international project and business partners are facilitated, matchmaking events, trade fairs, and business trips are organized. Another focus is on innovation management: workshops and information events promote future-proof business models, enhance competitiveness, and provide support with sustainability and EU reporting obligations.

With continuous availability, the network addresses the needs of start-ups, scale-ups, and established SMEs seeking to exploit their potential for new markets. Eligible beneficiaries receive comprehensive advice on foreign trade strategies, research & innovation, and corporate financing. Through close integration of economic development, research institutions, and sector-specific experts, a dynamic environment for cooperation and cluster formation is created. The goal is to sustainably position participating companies, facilitate access to international markets, and increase competitiveness through technological and organizational innovations.
