How do I source and engage trusted international partners?

This is perhaps one of the most frequently asked questions we receive about international expansion.

Is it safe, and is there an international law to protect me in case something goes wrong?

If you are going "global" for the first time, working with a local partner can be a good way to start.

These are some of the most common mistakes and problems that commonly arise with strategic alliances:

1. Not enough planning. Often, companies jump into international (and local) partnerships without much planning. The alliance seems like a good idea and looks like a good fit, so they take the plunge without doing due diligence, or thinking through how likely an alliance is to work.

2. No framework. International partnerships frequently fail because they lack a framework to guide both sides as they work together.

3. Weak relationships. Partnerships and alliances fail because people don’t put enough work into creating great relationships, either upfront or on an ongoing basis.

Why go on a trade mission 🌐
Maximise opportunities at business events

What is a Trade Mission? 🇨🇦🇨🇴🇲🇽🇪🇸
A Trade Mission is an international trip in which company executives travel together as a delegation to overseas destinations and are sometimes accompanied by government officials.

Its intent is that Trade Mission members meet with potential buyers or agents, participate in site visits and any networking receptions.

But why go on a trade mission? 🏁
Participating in a trade mission is a direct opportunity to become familiarized with the extensive markets inside and outside your country (and market). The purpose of trade missions is to provide you unique access to decision-makers and business executives around the world.

The five main reasons international trade takes place are:
↘️ Differences in technology.
↘️ Differences in resource endowments.
↘️ Differences in demand.
↘️ The presence of economies of scale.
↘️ The presence of government policies.

Important: Participating in a trade mission is an important step for any company, as is doing so with experienced companies.

Please contact us if you wish to enter a new market through a trade mission or other trade mission.
