We Are Looking for Members from Germany!
The Why:
More than 1000 bilateral collaborations have been established between German and Canadian research and intermediary organizations, universities and the private sector since the signing of the German-Canadian Intergovernmental Agreement on Scientific and Technological Cooperation in 1971.
Auswärtiges Amt
This membership-driven organization will start in Vancouver and work out from there, eventually expanding to German-speaking parts of Europe, such as Austria, Switzerland, Luxembourg etc. The idea is to promote each other and to learn strategies and tips on how to expand our business reach. By beginning in Vancouver, we establish a strong foundation rooted in the vibrant business community of Western Canada, leveraging local expertise and resources to support our members’ growth.
We are also reaching out to Toronto and Montreal, as there is a strong German-speaking presence in each of these two provinces. Contact Elke Porter at 604 828 8788 (text/talk) if you have any questions.
