The InvestEU Matchmaking Event 2019 will be the first of its kind. Powered by the European Investment Project Portal (EIPP) and the Seal of Excellence (SoE), it will be the best opportunity of the year for EU companies to pitch their projects directly to investors, and for investors to find great investment opportunities. With high-level speakers – such as European Commission Vice-President Jyrki Katainen and Commissioner Carlos Moedas – as well as thematic panels and one-to-one networking meetings, the event is all about bringing the public and private sectors together under the InvestEU umbrella. The InvestEU Matchmaking Event 2019 is a one-stop-shop offering great insights, discussions and unique matchmaking opportunities.
