English term or phrase: matches (x) entrepreneurs with (x) US$
• BiD Network is asked to advise the US Government on Obama’s Global Entrepreneurship programme for Muslim majority countries.
• Investor Matchmaking services matches 27 entrepreneurs with US$ 4.7 million.

Bidvest is a company that supports businesses in the developing world.

What I dont understand is how one can 'match' entrepreneurs with a sum of money! I don't understand the meaning of this sentence in English, which is why I have a problem translating it.

I would appreciate your explanations.

Explanation:
"matches"a la fonction d'un verb entre IMs(sujet) et les 27 entrepreneurs (objet) - et ainsi les choses deviennent plus claire à mon avis; les 27 entrepreuneurs ont chacun un valeur de ...; c'est de cette facon que je traduirais ces propos ... bonne chance

Mais il faut faire quand même attention - regarder bien le context car plusieurs variantes me semble possible, IMS fusionne/cumule 27 entrepreneurs à un chiffre d'affaires équivalent de ... sous son toit ? ou IMS a la valeur de 27... - ma langue maternelle est allemande - alors - bonne chance
