German term or phrase: (anderweitig) orientieren
aus einem Brief, in dem man dem Empfänger zu verstehen gibt, dass eine weitere Zusammenarbeit nicht mehr erwünscht ist, weil er auf alle Schreiben nicht reagiert hat. Ich benötige eine "diplomatische" Wendung im Sinne des Absenders.

"Nachdem Sie nicht reagiert haben, gehen wir davon aus, dass Sie mit XYZ keine langfristige Partnerschaft anstreben und beenden die Zusammenarbeit mit sofortiger Wirkung.
Für die ABC Messe werden wir uns anderweitig orientieren."

Ich kann natürlich schreiben: " ... we will look for another partner/find another partner..

Andere Ideen sind willkommen.
