1 Hour with Paul Bishop

🌍 Cross-Border Capital: Positioning SMEs for Investment, Growth & Acquisition We are delighted to welcome Paul Bishop to the “1 Hour With…” series as part of European Week of Regions and Cities. 📅 3 December 2026 🕑 14:00 CET In today’s rapidly changing global economy, attracting investment is about much more than finding the right investor. It is about being investment-ready, acquisition-ready, and knowing when opportunities arise. With more than 40 years of international business experience, Paul Bishop helps business owners build stronger companies through strategic alliances, mergers & acquisitions, and cross-border investment opportunities. Together, we will explore: ✅ How SMEs can prepare for international investment ✅ What investors and buyers really look for ✅ Why timing is often more important than the pitch itself ✅ How cross-border partnerships create long-term business growth As Paul says: “In cross-border capital, it’s not who you approach, or even how you approach them. It’s when. Timing isn’t luck — it’s intelligence.” Join us for another inspiring global conversation.
