Presenting Companies
9 to 12 companies originating from Estonia (and Latvia) will be invited to present their company and how it fosters, organises and manages process and service innovation.
The presentation should include the following elements:
- Presentation of the business idea or the business plan, the expected market potential and the growth strategy of the company as well as some elements of originality by the company related to the innovation.
