How we work
Before the introduction.
Our work begins before any meeting, so that each party knows who is on the other side of the table and what they can really offer.
A process inspired by the good practices of ICC chambers of commerce (World Chambers Federation).
Documents
We verify each party's documentation: registration, legal standing and the information provided.
References
We check the business and institutional references provided by both parties.
Qualification interviews
We talk with both parties to understand their goals, capabilities and expectations.
Due diligence
We gather and analyze the information before proposing an introduction.
Verification prepares a better-informed relationship. It does not replace contracts, guarantees or each party's own assessment.
