35 3 Q & A 35
36 Question 1: How did you choose these trade fairs? What were the criteria? The trade fairs have been selected based on: the geographical criterion; the past edition of the trade fairs (numbers of visitors, exhibitors and international participation); emerging economies in terms of potential business opportunities for the Funded SMEs (e.g. Middle East, South East Asia, Africa); the preferences of the Funded SMEs that have been consulted; the number of Funded SMEs per SME Instrument topic; the "innovation/technology factor" in cross-sectorial trade fairs; the "Trade for all" Communication of the European Commission; the available budget to organise this action. 36
37 Question 2: When will the applications open for given Trade Fairs? There are 4 Trade Fairs for which applications are currently open: FOE & MIHAS: apply by 9 December 2016 IE Expo & BIO: apply by 13 January 2017 For subsequent Trade Fairs, calls for interests will be launched on the EASME website as the programme progresses, typically +/- 4 months before the Trade Fair. Alerts will be sent out by , as well as on the OTF social media accounts. 37
38 Question 3: Are companies with an expired Phase 1 or Phase 2 grant agreement eligible for the programme? Yes. The programme targets all Phase 1 or Phase 2 SME Instrument Champions that have or had a signed grant agreement. Even after the expiration of the grant agreement, an SME Instrument Champion is eligible to apply for Phase 3 Support to commercialisation services, where the OTF programme is also part of. 38
39 Question 4: Is the aim of participating the promotion of the Funded project or is it just as much the promotion of the SMEs as companies? While the project funded under the SME Instrument Phase 1 or 2 is expected to be highlighted, promotion is not solely restricted to it. The selected SMEs will of course be promoted as companies as well, and more importantly, under the EU flag. Upon selection, the SMEs will provide all necessary information regarding their company and the products/services/technologies they wish to promote through the programme. These SME profiles will be discussed individually during the pre-departure briefing in a view to produce relevant promotional material under the EU-flag that will be disseminated on the international scene. 39
40 Question 5: Can a company apply to all 15 Trade Fairs? Yes. SME Instrument Champions may apply to an unlimited number of Trade Fairs. However, please remind that if you want a successful application, you will need the fit between the Trade Fair and your product/technology/service. If your application is successful, you can participate to maximum 2 Trade Fairs with the OTF programme. 40
41 Question 6: Will companies with previous experience in the targeted markets be more favourably evaluated? The most important evaluation criterion is the impact that the participating SMEs can be expected to generate from/at the Trade Fairs. The second criterion is the fit between the Trade Fair and/or target market with the company s product/technology/service. The third criterion is commitment of the SME to the programme, as the OTF programme should be regarded by the SMEs as an additional EU investment in their project/company. Previous business experience or relationships in the targeted markets are valued positively in the Expected Impact section. However, all the Trade Fairs having an international scope, such experience is not a prerequisite. 41
42 Question 7: Is presence required at the pre-departure briefing in Brussels? What happens if I cannot attend? The OTF Team strongly advises selected SMEs to participate to all support activities, including very importantly the Brussels briefing day, as its content (mentoring, market insights, practicalities in terms of participation) is tailored to each Trade Fair and related target markets; it allows to discuss each SME s Company profile individually, which is crucial for relevant matchmaking and pre-set meetings; These are fundamental elements increasing the probability of an impactful experience at the Trade Fair. Nonetheless, attendance if impossible will be replaced by additional support. Relevant alternative mentoring sessions will be organised to the SMEs unable to join the Brussels briefing session. 42
43 Question 8: How much human resources should we dedicate to the preparation of the Trade Fair as well as to the actual participation? All calls for interest will give indications regarding the estimated human resources needed for the preparation of the exhibitions, as well as the staff needed onsite during the Trade Fair. From experience, the OTF team recommends that at least one person be fully dedicated to the preparation for the Trade Fair. In an ideal case, that person is accompanied by a colleague during the Trade Fair, so as to always have a representative at the SME booth, and another person able to attend any B-2-B meetings, conferences or other side events. 43
44 Question 9: The SMEs selected receive up to 1000 to cover up to 50% of expenses. What type of expenses are eligible? The European Commission will reimburse up to 1000 to cover 50% of expenses related to: Travel and accommodation expenses; Customised services ordered through the OTF team, such as interpretation, translation, printing, booth enhancement, consulting services. The SMEs will incur expenses beforehand and send the related invoices to the OTF Team, which will then reimburse 50% of the amounts, with the overall compensation not exceeding
45 Question 10: Phase 2 Champions may cover some expenses under their grant agreement. Can you provide an example? Phase 2 Champions may cover the remainder of Trade Fair-related expenses (not covered by the 1000-voucher) under dissemination costs within their grant agreement. For example, for a total of 2800 of expenses Travel and accommodation = 1800 Customised added-value services = 1000 The commission will reimburse 50% of these expenses, up to a maximum of 1000, i.e The remainder of 1800 can be integrated in the Phase 2 grant agreement if it is still on-going at the day of the exhibition period at the trade fair. Please check with your SME Instrument project officer for practicalities. 45
46 Question 11: The OTF programme includes matchmaking services and organises pre-set meetings at the Trade Fair for the selected SMEs. Can selected SMEs participate to similar initiatives organised by the Trade Fair? The matchmaking with relevant business counterparts is the key addedvalue for participating SMEs. The OTF programme will synergise with the Trade Fair organisers, other EU initiatives at the Trade Fairs (for example if B2B meetings are organised by EEN), or any other stakeholder to the extent possible. All existing matchmaking initiatives, channels and tools will be leveraged, as the OTF programme aims to create a maximal impact for attending SMEs. This also applies to any other relevant event, conference, etc. that would take place during the exhibition. 46
47 Question 12: Does the mission week include meetings with local Government officials? The OTF programme will seek to extend the reach of the participating SMEs. This will be done through promotion to relevant multipliers, including Government-related entities, industry associations, Chambers of Commerce and EU Delegations, etc.; relevant companies and business counterparts, including potential customers, distributors, investors, partners, etc. The OTF team will aim to support your matchmaking needs in a broad sense, based on the needs gathered in the Company profile during the various mentoring initiatives of the programme. 47
