It also encouraged SME’s to do more joint offers to potential bigger customers that they could not reach alone. During the project, networks, new businesses (new startup entrepreneurs), new products and new customer relationships were created. Best of all, the network that was born during the project continues to work actively on it’s own and is opening doors also to new network members.
