3 exploratory missions in 2022-2023

On January 18, 2022, REC-N-COMP launched a “call for pitches” for SMEs from partner countries (Italy, France, Poland, Belgium). 5 SMEs per target country (USA, Japan and Singapore) have been selected. They will participate in the missions in the target countries, with their travel expenses covered by the project.

The first mission took place in the USA, during the week of October 17th. It included a visit to the CAMX trade show in Anaheim, California, which is the country’s main trade show dedicated to the composites sector. REC-N-COMP and the participating companies took part in a tour of the show, as well as a program of meetings with companies, a university and industry associations in California.

The mission in Japan will take place the week of May 15th, 2023. The mission in Singapore will be organised in the second semester of 2023.
