Notice Description

Tenders are invited from interested parties for the inclusion in a Framework Agreement for the Business Bridge (Phase 2) Experts Panel. This project will support businesses interested in the Medical Technologies (MedTech) and Healthcare market by providing them with access to market-specific expertise.
