Real talks, real people, real cross-border connections
See the energy, the focus, and the people at the 2 September First Tuesday international business networking event in this short recap:
On September 2, international business leaders and institutional stakeholders gathered in Tallinn for an afternoon built around one shared ambition: helping Estonian companies move west — into Belgium, Germany, Switzerland, and Austria.
From keynote insights to small-group exchanges, every part of the programme focused on practical cross-border business topics:
- Learnings about Flanders textile valley.
- Understanding the DACH business culture.
- Building a presence in media, including AI visibility.
- Connecting fashion and textile professionals with policy and diplomacy.
- Learning from entrepreneurs with real skin in the game.
💬 “The biggest value came from the personal conversations — not just listening, but contributing.”
