The Korea Outdoor & Sports Industry Association (KOIA), one of the most active and advanced national industry associations in the world, is organizing a series of online matchmaking events with European brands, distributors and retailers in view of the new EU–Korean free-trade agreement. Taking place at different time slots in November, the program is a unique opportunity for them, as Korean companies will not be able to participate in European trade shows this winter.
Subscribers to the news services of EDM Publications, including SGI Europe and The Outdoor Industry Compass, are invited to register by Oct. 22 to participate in the matchmaking program free of charge.
The European co-organizer of the program, Huginbiz®, has selected several top Korean suppliers of functional fabrics and equipment at the forefront of innovation and sustainable development to meet with European brands and leading Korean sports, outdoor and cycling brands to meet with European distributors and retailers.
The available dates for the digital matchmaking meetings are Nov. 3-4, Nov. 9-11 and Nov. 17-18, 2021. The sessions (20-30 minutes each) will take place in the mornings between 8 and 11 am CET.
For more information, please get in touch with Karolina Piekarz at EDM Publications’ headquarters in Munich at k.piekarz@edmpublications.com. The registration deadline for the matchmaking meetings is Oct. 22, 2021.
