The Faculty of Economics and Business Groningen (FEB) has strong links with Germany. Through our German students and academic researchers and our close ties with German companies. On Friday 22 May 2015 we want to put the spotlight on the existing cooperation between Germany and the Netherlands and explore new opportunities.

Key questions of the event will be: How can German and Dutch organisations and universities work together successfully? How can local governments actively support this process? How can companies make use of the international talent pool? How can students be encouraged and facilitated to explore employment across the border? How can we cooperate across language and cultural barriers?

This event offers students the opportunity to connect with German and Dutch employers and talk with key leaders.
