La DHK Costa Rica ejecuta proyectos subvencionados por el Estado para el fomento del comercio exterior por encargo del Ministerio Federal de Economía y Energía Alemán. Estos proyectos buscan fomentar el comercio exterior entre ambas regiones, y se componen de delegaciones de empresas alemanas clave en cada sector, que visitan la región mesoamericana para explorar oportunidades de negocios e inversión. También hay proyectos para seguimiento posterior. Los proyectos se llevan a cabo en el marco de diversos instrumentos de financiación y en los que la DHK Costa Rica participa como ejecutora o socia colaboradora. Los proyectos están dirigidos especialmente a las pequeñas y medianas empresas (pymes) y les ayudan a ampliar sus actividades y su presencia en los mercados internacionales. Además, dependiendo del proyecto, también pueden beneficiarse de determinadas medidas las empresas del sector industrial, los profesionales liberales, los proveedores de servicios relacionados con la economía y las grandes empresas.

En la actualidad en Alemania, cada año se celebran más de 30 000 ferias en unos 1 200 recintos feriales. Estas ferias son de una magnitud considerable y exhiben las actualizaciones tecnológicas y del sector más recientes. Las ferias especializadas se centran en un sector y un público objetivo concretos. En las ferias para visitantes profesionales solo se admite a personas que puedan acreditar su pertenencia al sector y que participen por motivos puramente profesionales o comerciales, por eso la entrada mediante la DHK les da una credibilidad certera. Una feria puede facilitar que un negocio costarricense logre una visibilidad considerable, modificando ampliamente su modelo de negocios, creando oportunidades económicas y generando alianzas importantes. La DHK Costa Rica organiza anualmente delegaciones que selecciona, visitan las ferias (Messen) en Alemania, coordina reuniones con posibles aliados estratégicos, guía y facilita la visita y le da seguimiento posterior.

Trade fairs (“Messen”) in Germany are temporary commercial events where companies and professionals from different sectors come together to present products, generate contacts, and create business opportunities. They function as key platforms for networking, innovation, and market expansion, allowing companies to showcase their offerings through stands and direct meetings with clients or partners. Germany is a global leader in this field, with around 160 to 180 international trade fairs per year, more than 180,000 exhibiting companies, and nearly 10 million visitors, mainly in cities such as Frankfurt, Hannover, Düsseldorf, Berlin, Munich and Cologne. These fairs cover a wide range of sectors—from industry and technology to food, health, and mobility—and are characterized by their high level of specialization, professional organization, and strong international focus.
DHK Costa Rica supports Costa Rican companies in their participation in trade fairs in Germany. If you are interested, please do not hesitate to contact us; we will recommend the most suitable fairs and support you in communication with the organizers in Germany.
