Are you interested in doing business in Germany? The North Rhine-Westphalia Chambers of Industry and Commerce and Enterprise Europe Network (EEN) invite you to a German-Dutch matchmaking during AWT 2025. It is a unique opportunity to make targeted business contacts with companies from the neighbouring country.

The IHK-Außenwirtschaftstag NRW (AWT) is North Rhine-Westphalia's largest conference on international business.
For whom?
The matchmaking is ideal for Dutch companies active in:
- export & import
- industry & technology
- nnovation & digitalisation
- supply chain & logistics
- international cooperation
Why participate?
The Chambers of Commerce and Industry in North Rhine-Westphalia organize the AWT every 2 years. The AWT expects dozens of speakers, various exhibitors and representatives of the Chambers of Commerce from more than 50 countries. The event offers:
- exciting presentations on current topics in international trade;
- panel discussions on foreign trade practice;
- an exhibition with service providers in the field of foreign trade;
- the opportunity to have individual talks with German Chambers of Commerce representatives.
Registration and participation
Participation in the matchmaking is only possible after registering for the AWT. The cost for this is €99. After your registration for the AWT, you will receive a separate link for the matchmaking. In it, you enter your company profile and the type of contacts you are looking for. Our tip here is that a good, complete profile often results in more meeting requests. You can then select interesting discussion partners yourself and be selected by others. Appointments are scheduled in advance.
