01 — What we do

Three ways
across the bridge.

Events & conferences

Sponsor & exhibitor outreach

We find companies, agencies and institutions abroad that fit your audience, and get them talking about booths, sponsorship and delegations.

Producers

Export partner search

For Estonian producers going abroad. We find distributors, importers and buyers in your target market and set up first calls with the interested ones.

Organisations

Partnership introductions

Need a specific partner, like an investor network, a university or a trade body? We find the right person and make a warm introduction.

Beyond outreach

Companies

Giving-back strategy

Where, why and how your company should give back. We pick causes that fit your brand, find the right partners and set up a plan your team will actually use.

Events & conferences

Impact track design

A social impact programme for your event, with content, partners and a format that gives sponsors something meaningful to support.

03 — How it works

You talk.
We do the rest.

  1. 01

    Brief

    A 30-minute call about who you want to meet, in which countries, and what you can offer them.

  2. 02

    Target list

    We build a researched list of organisations and named contacts. You approve it before anything is sent.

  3. 03

    Outreach

    Personal messages in English or Estonian, with follow-ups. Every reply is handled within a day.

  4. 04

    Meetings

    Interested contacts land in your calendar with a short note on who they are and what they want.

Pricing: a monthly retainer plus a fee per qualified meeting, so you pay mostly for results.
04 — Who you work with

Why Sild
We don't mind the gap.
We bridge it.

Sild means bridge in Estonian. That's the job: connect organisations that should be working together, and make the first conversation easy.
