Shaped by live forums, business visits and cross-border participation

Zatino's network has been built through active participation in forums, sourcing and investment programmes, business visits and international delegation activity. These settings create the context in which stronger business relationships can begin.

Programmes have involved business leaders, sector specialists, institutional contacts and market-facing organisers across multiple cities and sectors.

Also supporting Ireland–Europe–China business connection

Alongside CCP-focused activity, Zatino also supports selected cross-border business initiatives linked to Ireland, Europe and China, especially where relationship-building, programme structure and commercial positioning matter.
