Strategic Partners
A memorandum of understanding (MOU) is a bilateral agreement, a Strategic Partnership between ISBT and other organisations. It expresses a convergence of will between the parties, indicating an intended common line of action, rather than a legal commitment.
Both organizations recognize that their missions, aims and activities have common elements and that this provides a potential for synergy. The organizations believe in working together to use their respective resources to pursue mutual and common interests.
ISBT is proud to have an MOU with the following Strategic Partners:
