Starters International Business

Why export goods and services?

Exporting goods and services abroad offers your business more opportunities. It can lead to greater sales and serve as a solution to the challenge of increased competition in the domestic market. With its Starters International Business (SIB) program, CGCB International BV can help you move into foreign markets.

Vouchers

Exporting is not something you just do. It requires good preparation. With the Starters International Business (SIB) program CGCB International helps companies that want to make the step to export to foreign markets. If your case has been approved by the Netherlands Enterprise Agency, you will receive a voucher worth € 2,400 for the entire coaching program. During the individual coaching you will investigate the possibilities abroad with a consultant / coach of CGCB International BV and you will work towards a concrete action plan.

Export allows you to effectively spread your risks. But how do you start? What are your company’s strengths? Which markets can offer opportunities and how can you successfully seize them? How do I find my potential business partners in other countries?

There are three different SIB vouchers that can help you with your plans to take your business abroad:

  • Individual coaching voucher is to hire a consultant / coach to look at your opportunities abroad and to work towards a concrete plan of action.
  • Collective activity voucher is to participate in an outbound trade delegation or a joint trade fair presentation.
