A new Invest
In Europe directory is now available. It divides the large
regional directory below of European investment
promotion agencies (IPA's) into country directories. These national
directories will expand to include more local economic development
organizations and other useful contacts in each country, while the European
regional economic development directory below will be more selective.
We are also developing a
European directory of professional service providers for business
investment projects. That may also expand into national directories to
include professionals whose work tends to be local or national in scope
rather than pan-European or global. Pan-European or global services
also remain on this European regional directory of contacts, as shown by the
links below. |
|
Economic development organizations are encouraged to
inform us of their websites and
contact details so that we can make it easier for potential investors to
find them. |
A special directory was set up on May 1, 2004 for the
EU
enlargement countries for convenient reference
by executives and their professional advisors. This will be updated
periodically as other candidate countries for EU accession, such as Turkey
and others, |
|
Use the regional links below or scroll down for the
directory of area representatives for investment promotion agency - IPA
- services
(economic development organizations - EDO) and other
professional contacts or resources for
planning direct investment projects in Europe. "Europe" does not refer
to European Union membership status.
The national links, when available below, are for separate
and generally more comprehensive economic development directories of
investment promotion agencies by country. |

Explanation of column
headings above
- Organizations are generally sorted in
postal code order so that locations which are geographically close to each
other will usually (not always) be grouped together. This is a
selective directory, even though the state directory is more comprehensive
than the very selective one we will maintain at the regional level to
highlight the organizations which support our work or are found to be of
frequent interest for the convenience of the executives and business
advisors we serve.
- Scope : is the area served by the
organization, and postal code. We may include thumbnail maps which
expand to show information about participating areas, or link directly to
good maps or GIS research tools on the organization's website.
|
- Contacts : relationship leader at GDI
Solutions for maintaining information about contacts in this area.
If there is a working relationship through our various GUIDE services, we
also list the key organization contact, phone, and optional e-mail.
- Website and other resources : Aside from
the main website link, we may include other direct links to highlight
special features of expected interest to executives, especially if they
might not be readily noticed by just visiting the website. A good
example of this is when relevant content is actually maintained somewhere
else, such as a regional website rather than the local one, so that one
would otherwise need to know to follow the available links between the
websites.
|
|
|
The presence, absence,
or position of any organization on these lists,
or their position on the lists, does not imply any endorsement or opinion about their services,
nor by them about our own. The selections are simply intended to be helpful to executives who may be
unaware of such contacts, or how to reach their websites quickly.
Please contact us directly for relevant introductions or any additional
contacts, market knowledge, and research which we don't publish. |
|
Contact information for relationship leaders at Global
Direct Investment Solutions (GDI-Solutions) |
|
Please
contact us for project assistance. As this business grows,
relationship leaders in Europe will develop and
maintain working relationships among more economic development organizations, professional service
providers, and corporate executives who are responsible for major projects.

This directory selectively highlights
participating economic development organizations and professional service
provider contacts in the Europe region by
including more relevant links to useful content than just the local website.
The directory may also identify other contacts of potential interest to
executives and business advisors on a selective basis, as in the case of the
following initial examples. We work together with EDO's to share timely
knowledge about the benefits of their areas as we serve potential investors and
advisors who are responsible for business location or site selection decisions
for foreign direct investment (FDI)
or capital investment projects such as new factories or offices, expansion projects, business
relocation, and consolidation of operations as in post-merger integration
situations.
Related services support

organizations or IPA's.
