Our goal is low-risk, long-term supply contracts with strategic partners.
In the fields where we are active, Twinnovate seeks involvement in all layers of the value chain. We aim to make connections and facilitate integration in order to increase the viability of business concepts and support profitability. We believe this approach sets Twinnovate apart in the market.
