Vision2020: SME perspective
Thank you for the outstanding service you offer us through the V2020 network! We have used the
platform on a number of occasions now to identify partners for our H2020 consortia. On each occasion we
have found these searches to reach a specialised targeted community, which makes it very effective for us. We believe that a focussed network is an effective
network. Keep up the good work!
