International Cleantech Network
Internationalization
Internationalisation is a core aspect of ICN’s services. By giving access to international challenges relevant to the expertise of ICN members and by providing the ICN passport services, which allows ICN members to request assistance when looking for support in a region where another cluster member is based, ICN enables its members to develop and strengthen their international partnerships.

ICN Passport
The ICN Passport is a service that allows interested members within the ICN network to request assistance when seeking new project partners or business opportunities at a local ICN cluster in the targeted region. It also provides the local cluster with the opportunity to expand its network, to meet potential partners, and to gain new knowledge.
Soft Landing Service
Soft Landing Service Benefit
The ICN Passport allows for a visiting cluster or member of the cluster to be hosted at the workspace of a hosting cluster. The offer is subject to the availability of the host cluster resources (supporting staff, documentation, space) and terms for the visit must be negotiated amongst the involved parties. The visiting cluster/company will have an office desk to work from and the possibility to use meeting facilities at the office of the local cluster. The local cluster will be able to demonstrate added value to its own members by facilitating contact with foreign partners creating possibilities for new business.
What our clients say about our work
My company “XY” is a proud member of Sustainable Business Hub in Malmö Sweden, which is a member of ICN. GreenCape is the only African member of ICN. This week I am working from their office while we discuss how Sweden & South Africa can collaborate around international opportunities and value, and how to enhance our competitive advantage. As a member, I have full access to the beautiful office & a booked Board Room, which is really valuable for me enabling me to host meetings here. Being a member of Sustainable Business Hub enhances my business tremendously internationally.
