Description

The Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development is seeking proposals from qualified organizations to provide business-to-business matchmaking and market entry support for up to six California exporters participating in the California delegation to DSEI Germany 2027. The contractor will support target-partner identification inside and outside Germany, including partners attending the trade show. The delegation will be cancelled if fewer than four companies are recruited. The updated clarification confirms that the required established trade promotion or consulting office in Europe may be provided by a named subcontractor or team member, and that the maximum number of participating companies is six rather than nine. The contract includes pre-event preparation, market-fit evaluations, market analysis, meeting scheduling, on-site event support, and post-event reporting.
