Don McKeny,
CEO, Mardon Healthcare Information System

" The professionalism of the participating business attendees at Edays in Lidköping and their willingness to share business concepts and product identification to another entrepreneur is without question the best experience that I have ever had on an international meeting. Since my return to Arizona I have been able to move forward with at least four different contacts, with a real possibility to introduce ourEngineered Forms Process product to Sweden within a year's period of time"

Steven Carter
, Executive Vice President - Sales & Marketing
3glogix and Aprilsystem

"The 2006 Edays in Lidkoping will be my third year in attendance in a row. Every year has created new business contacts (in some cases, friends) and my business projections based on pre-contacts made to date is that this year will be no different. These meetings bring many new people, new ideas or concepts, and new business opportunities to consider.

As you may or may not know, I have close to 30 years of business experience, with a majority of those years in the USA. Those years include levels of business on both a large and small business scale. I could not even begin to tell you the amount of trade shows or conferences I have attended. It is a lot. There are several aspects of the Entrepreneurial Days program that make it unique and more effective than "traditional" conferences. An example of this uniqueness is the Business Matchmaking sessions. The ability to specifically pre-register, really contact and pre-qualify, meetings with potential clients or partners is an aspect usually not seen in many US conference formats. This really has a time effective characteristic streamlining the business possibility process.

The initial concept of our firm, www.3gLogix.com, was to create a "bridge across the water" for proprietary, leading edge wireless technologies between Sweden and the USA. You and your constituents have been so diligent and consistent with program development that this past year our firm has had to re-evaluate our position due to the tremendous inquiry level we have been receiving in many areas. We now project an equal growth platform in the "non-wireless" business area using our sister company, www.aprilsystem.com. These pushes most likely will double our business size in the relatively short time of less than three years with projections for a more global market growth picture spanning to and from Sweden. This does not even count the people we haven't met at this year's meeting! "

Stenkulla Brunn entering U.S. market thanks to the E-days in Växjö 2004

Stenkulla Brunn, a company from Bollebygd (just outside Gothenburg), is being recognized by top restaurateurs as well as everyday consumer in Scandinavia for its high quality natural artesian water. Thanks to successful business matchmaking at the Entrepreneurial Days in Uppsala last year Stenkulla Brunn has entered an agreement with an American beverage distributor and is now getting ready to launch in the U.S. The annual Restaurant Guide puts Stenkulla on the very top of the list of waters describing its taste as: "Clean, fresh and rich with flavorful minerals, long-lasting fresh taste with balanced sparkle."
