First meeting

An initial meeting and action plan, i.e. we will arrange a meeting, phone or video call, during which we will discuss your needs and put together the action plan and point you in the right direction.

If the expert estimates that the time involved in the work may exceed the limit of the amount of work that can be provided free of charge (6 hours of expert time), a service contract will be signed with you, outlining the content of the consultation, the expected volume and the basis for pricing. The initial meeting will be limited to one hour and will not count as a free service.

While all EAS staff are bound by the obligation to keep company business secrets, a confidentiality agreement is also available to further protect your business secrets.

Partner meetings

Development cooperation will support the company in setting up meetings with potential partners, preparing for the meetings and maintaining focus during the meeting.

In addition, after the meetings if requested, to review the outcomes.

Finishing

Once the expert has completed the activities, handed over the results to the company, and has spent no more than 6 hours of the expert’s time, the service is deemed to have been provided. There is no reporting or cost to the company.

If there is an agreement to use paid time of development cooperation consultant, we will invoice the company for the more than 6 hours used, and the service will also be deemed to have been provided upon payment.
