Together with ESSEN BUSINESS and experts from its network \u2013 such as lawyers, patent attorneys, representatives of technical inspection and certification bodies such as T\u00dcV, industry specialists and representatives from major energy and industrial companies \u2013 you review your market-entry strategy, explore relevant market opportunities and address questions relating to regulation, certification, technology, funding and potential business contacts. All activities, including the development of your market-entry plan and B2B matchmaking, are coordinated closely with your team throughout the process.<\/p>\n<p>The Strategy Check is conducted primarily online and starts with a digital meeting or workshop to define your objectives and agree on a tailored matchmaking plan. Individual meetings are then arranged according to your needs and availability; the process usually takes several months, ideally up to six, with no mandatory events and a manageable time commitment for your company.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n        <\/div>\n\n              <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n              <style type=\"text\/css\">\n        [data-block_809f9729b3052b17562bcbd6db5a1011] {\n        }\n      <\/style>\n      <\/section>\n\n\n\n  \n\n                \n                              \n\n\n    \n  \n\n  <section\n    id=\"\"\n    class=\" c-widget--has-space-top-small c-widget--has-space-bottom-small c-widget--has-bg c-widget--has-dark-bg  c-widget--has-font-color c-widget c-widget--text align \"\n    data-block_84d3c05521b851aeff8fbe0b57c56937\n    style=\"--bg-color: #002d53;--font-color: #f2efef;--main-color: #fff;\"  >\n\n          <div class=\"o-wrapper\">\n    <div class=\"o-container\">\n      <div class=\"c-widget__text-content\">\n        <div class=\"c-widget__content\">\n                      <p class=\"c-text c-text--label\" style=\"color: #f2efef\"><\/p>\n                    <div class=\"c-text c-text--two-col\"><h1 style=\"text-align: left;\">Module 2: Welcome Package<\/h1>\n<p>The Welcome Package supports eligible companies in establishing a subsidiary and setting up their operational activities in Essen.<\/p>\n<p>Selected companies may receive a grant of up to <strong>\u20ac10,000<\/strong>.

ESSEN BUSINESS then reviews the company\u2019s plans against a set of internal selection criteria, including the level of innovation, the company\u2019s economic development and growth potential, and the planned scale of its operations and workforce in Essen. Once approved for the Welcome Package, the company establishes its subsidiary and begins setting up its business operations in Essen.<\/p>\n<p>During the funding period, the company can use the services and support approved under the Welcome Package. The company initially pays the eligible costs and subsequently submits the required invoices and proof of payment to ESSEN BUSINESS.<\/p>\n<p>Following the review of the submitted documents, ESSEN BUSINESS reimburses the approved costs. The Welcome Package ends 12 months after the funding confirmation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n        <\/div>\n\n              <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n              <style type=\"text\/css\">\n        [data-block_72566d0841419a75e8f7a86585caa960] {\n        }\n      <\/style>\n      <\/section>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n        \n\n  \n  \n<section\n  class=\"c-widget c-widget--story-parallax c-widget-- story-parallax align c-widget--has-dark-bg\"  data-block_6c0fbbcd36ed666a5095bab7452d86c5\n  style=\"--group-color: #002d53\"\n>\n\n  <div\n    class=\"c-parallax-content has-top-gradient has-bottom-gradient\"\n    style=\"--top-gradient-color: #002d53; --bottom-gradient-color: #002d53;\"\n  >\n    <div class=\"o-wrapper\">\n      <div class=\"o-container\">\n        <div class=\"c-parallax-content__inner\">\n                      <div class=\"c-parallax-content__headline c-parallax-content__headline--left\"><h2><span class=\"c-text c-text--outline\"><b>WHY essen?<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n                                <div class=\"c-parallax-content__editor-content below\">\n              \n              <div class=\"bspace fliesstext \">\n<div class=\"text\">\n<div class=\"fliesstext \">\n<p>Essen is Europe\u2019s Energy Capital and one of the continent\u2019s leading locations for energy and GreenTech.
