Tailored Industry Cluster Missions 
Hager Ernst’s vast network of government agencies, industry organizations, research institutions and companies span a broad gambit. It is with these organizations that Hager Ernst plans industry cluster missions either for a individual organization (a U.S. professional Services company) or a group of interested parties that participate together (for example: Wind Energy Fact Finding Missions to Denmark, Industry Marketing Mission to Germany, Industry specific tours and seminars in the U.S.). These missions can be tailored to client’s exact specifications, to include meetings at the highest levels both politically or commercially, or to include technical and policy tracks.
These missions target primarily European trips, however there are several opportunities each year where we plan European industry delegations to the U.S. and manage the agenda for these groups while in the U.S.
For the upcoming 2009 COP 15 event in Copenhagen, 7 – 18 December 2009
Services Hager Ernst can offer include:
- Qualified match-making services for clients at side event or other venues:
- Develop a unique marketing communications package
- Promotional and Marketing events in other European countries: For example, a presentation series with Solar Technology firms in Germany, Biofuel equipment developers/manufacturers in Sweden or Wind Energy firms in Denmark could be specifically tailored for maximum impact.
