Many small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Sweden, Estonia and Latvia have the ambition to grow internationally outside of EU, but lack the tools needed. Advance4Growth is created to help deep-tech SMEs – within fields like AI, smart manufacturing, cleantech and healthtech – take real steps into the United Kingdom, with a focus on the Golden Triangle: London, Oxford and Cambridge.
This area is one of the world’s leading innovation hubs, with strong demand for deep tech technologies that Central Baltic companies are good at building. But after Brexit, entering it alone has become harder and more complex.
The project will secure 10 sales contracts in the UK by creating a pool of 60 companies from 3 partnering countries (Estonia, Latvia and Sweden). The second goal is to foster cross-border collaborations between the countries for on-boarded SMEs, partners, and local organizations.
