Enhancing Business Internationalization

What is the general idea of the pilot?

The overarching concept of this pilot program is to make internationalization services more accessible and tailored to a wider spectrum of enterprises. It revolves around the deployment of a specialized tool designed to offer precise recommendations based on individual company needs. These recommendations will guide businesses through the critical steps of internationalization. By addressing common challenges faced by companies seeking to harness the full potential of internationalization services, this pilot aims to streamline the process and maximize its value.

Why are we piloting it?

The pilot is initiated with the aim of achieving several key objectives. Firstly, it seeks to assess the efficacy and relevance of the specialized tool in real-world scenarios, ensuring it provides practical value to businesses. Secondly, it endeavors to gather insights into the most prevalent challenges companies encounter when engaging with internationalization services, allowing us to tailor recommendations accordingly. Lastly, it serves as a testing ground to evaluate the suitability of internationalization service providers in partner regions for addressing specific business needs. Through this pilot, we aim to refine our support mechanisms and offer a more effective pathway to international expansion.

Why is your organisation invited to join?

The pilot program is strategically tailored for active participation by business support organizations. These entities encompass chambers of commerce, industry associations, trade promotion agencies, and consultancy firms that play pivotal roles in assisting SMEs (Small and Medium-sized Enterprises) in their internationalization efforts. The pilot welcomes organizations that are dedicated to supporting and empowering SMEs in expanding their global presence.
