A new phase for the Enterprise Europe Network Hamburg/Schleswig-Holstein (EEN HH/SH) begins on 1 July 2025. With the official signing of the contract by the last consortium partner on 4 June, one thing is certain: the proven network will continue its successful work until 31 December 2028 - funded by the European Commission.
Four partners, one goal: growth and innovation for SMEs
The EEN HH/SH is backed by four strong partners who have already been active together in previous EU funding periods: IB.SH, WTSH, IFB, TUTECH.
Building on many years of cooperation, comprehensive expertise and numerous successes, they continue to support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and research-related institutions in Hamburg and Schleswig-Holstein on their way.
Effective advice: internationalisation, innovation and promotion
The EEN HH/SH sees itself as a central regional contact point for companies in all matters relating to:
- Participation in the EU internal market
- Internationalisation within and outside Europe
- Promotion of innovation
- Access to EU funding programmes
The aim is to support ambitious companies in their growth, innovation and international market access - especially against the backdrop of key challenges such as sustainability, digitalisation and resilience.
Customised, networked, visible
The consortium offers general information services as well as extensive consulting and partnering services that have a tangible impact on companies. EEN HH/SH co-operates closely with a large number of players from local, regional, national and European business and innovation networks.
Through close integration into the entire global EEN network and active communication of its services, EEN HH/SH also strengthens the visibility and reach of its work.
Ready for the future
With the official project start on 1 July 2025 and a term until the end of 2028, the EEN HH/SH is entering the next funding phase with fresh vigour - and will remain a reliable partner for SMEs and research institutions in the region in the future.
