Nair & Co., a leading global integrated solutions provider helping companies expand overseas, is sponsoring the Global Tech Showcase (GTS), a popular conference that connects promising technology companies with potential European partners, investors and clients.
The event takes place June 3-5 at the Atlantia Convention Center in La Baule, France. Nair & Co.’s Vice President of Business Development, Stephen Wares, said
the conference is especially relevant this year as Europe’s buying power for new and innovative technologies continues to be robust, despite the economic slump.
“Many of our clients have expanded into Europe recently and we’re seeing an increasing number of companies begin to tap into the region’s economic potential. We want to see them succeed. As experts in helping set up and support international operations for U.S. companies, we share with the GTS, the common goal of facilitating growth for technology companies. We’re delighted to be a part of this event for the third consecutive year,” Wares said.
The conference kicks off with a European Business Workshop, which includes a presentation by Nair & Co.’s Client Services Director Liam Taylor. Scheduled to speak at 5:00 p.m. (CEST) on June 3, Taylor tackles key employment, legal, tax and compliance issues that companies must address when setting up in Europe. The workshop is to be held at the hotel Hermitage Barriere. Also attending from Nair & Co. are Mark Kent, director EMEA and Andrew Doyle, business development executive.
Held in conjunction with the World Investment Conference, GTS is one of the few platforms to provide companies one-on-one meetings with major European corporations that are looking for distribution partnerships, strategic alliances, investments or technology integration.
This year, the GTS is expected to attract over 1000 high-level officials, business leaders, and journalists. The attendees include.
Bernard Liautaud, general partner, Balderton Capital; Amanda West, chief innovation officer, Thomson Reuters; Hans van Grieken, VP business innovation, Capgemini; Matthieu Coutiere, corporate VP, Vivendi; Lars Michaelsen, investment manager, T-Venture Holding Deutsche Telecom; Benjamin Schreiner, head of innovation, Royal Bank of Scotland Group; Frederic Hanika, senior manager, Software AG; David McGrath, head of global scouting, Nokia; Thierry Tingaud, VP strategic planning, ST-Ericsson; Wolfgang Schuster, venture capital & start-ups, Vodafone.
