Partner search
• What kind of partners do we need/ can we benefit from/ are reliable?
• Who is behaving “right”? – first of all we are using already existing contacts, partners from previous projects or from networks inside the Union of the Baltic Cities.
• We are working with an external consultant who are making an analyze concerning other potential partners.
• We wish a strategical composition with Nordic dimension and ”exotic” partners.
