Being invited to join the TBIC means access to a straightforward and cost-effective way of maximizing your exposure to European investors.
To effectively bridge the gap between U.S. EDOs and European investors, the TBIC offers a variety of services. Ranging from direct representation through our office representation program or delegation trips to meet European investors, to U.S. event formats such as our certification programs, annual conference and familiarization tours with our distinguished experts from the TBIC Advisory Council.
TBIC FDI Trips to Europe offer a unique opportunity to get in direct contact with main FDI stakeholders, multipliers and companies in Europe. Accompanied by experienced TBIC staff and a member of the TBIC Advisory Council, TBIC brings you into contact with organizations and business institutions who will be useful partners for future lead generation and visit companies who are planning to build up or expand their production in the United States.

Through our TBIC Inbound Delegations, we enable our member communities to directly market themselves to European investors that travel with us through key industrial clusters in the United States. Every year, our Annual Conference, hosted by a TBIC member, also brings together the entire TBIC community, as well as distinguished outside guests and European companies, thus providing another promising avenue for exposure. Furthermore, we host a wide variety of FDI conferences all over the U.S. as part of our TBIC Familiarization Tours. These events provide a unique opportunity to learn more about European FDI and the TBIC while personally getting to know our participating advisory council members who want to learn more about your region.

Just like foreign prospects who want to expand in the United States need a local representation, the economic development efforts of your organization in Europe benefit tremendously from a permanent European presence. The TBIC Office Representation includes a physical address at a premium location in the heart of Europe; a European telephone number serviced by a designated TBIC employee; designated working hours for follow-ups, translations, travel support and much more! The European Office Representation is a dynamic concept open to all TBIC members.

The TBIC Certification Program “The FDI-Qualified Community” is a unique certification program embedded in a holistic framework that gives communities the ability to verify their international ambitions and market themselves as “FDI-ready” communities. Its goal is to assess your region holistically and highlight specific community strengths in infrastructure, workforce preparedness, community leadership, cultural competence and intercultural communication that are essential to successfully attracting, securing and retaining international investments (FDI).
Please contact us to learn more about the TBIC Certification Program.
Supporting your community also means supporting your local companies.
