  21. How does it work? DEMAND • Volunteer projects/organisations • Demand: • Support • Time • Manpower/means -> No structural projects!

  22. How does it work? DEMAND • Present the project at the Marketplace: You only have 5 to 10 minutes! • What do you have to offer in return? • Be a real partner!

  23. How does it work? BROKERS • To organise matches • Corners like: • Manpower • Material • Facilities • Professional advice • Marketing & communication

  24. How does it work? BROKERS • Invite companies to make an offer, and organisations to present projects within these ‘corners’ • Not virtual, actual: just like in a stock exchange • Publish/announce the matches on screens

  25. How to organise a (local) Marketplace: WHO • Local brokers • Volunteer centres • National/local companies • Foundation (social welfare or other) • Trade association • Chambers of Commerce • (Local) government • Service organisations (Rotary, Lions) • National/local volunteer organisations VERY IMPORTANT: • Make it a joint effort!! • Organise a team of stakeholders • Don’t exclude

  26. Organisation of SUPPLY • Research: companies/organisations from different branches • Face-to-face presentations • Ambassadors/trendsetters • What’s in it for them?

  27. Organisation of DEMAND • Educate organisations not to think only in money • Organise workshops/meetings • Support in developing interesting projects • What do they have to offer? • Make sure they do what they have to do in case of a match

  28. At the Marketplace • Create a dynamic event (no seats, not too long) • Invite well-known people • Bring supply to demand • Announce matches • Have contracts signed in public • Make brokers visible • Invite press • Publish the results afterwards: in number of matches or capitalised value

  29. Key factors for success for organisors • Focus: What is your mission/objective? • Commitment of the local community • Use ambassadors and networks to attract demand and supply • Clear communication before and at the Marketplace • Location/setting/furnishings/decoration • Good follow-up
