  8. Now look at some issues in MARKETING: • Globalization requires and rewards best practices • How many of Nike’s 5’000 employees in the US are working in production? • How much do Hong Kong’s traders get for marketing mainland China’s exports? • In what sectors are most of the world’s 10 largest companies in terms of sales? Capacity to undertake market analysis is the key

  9. Change demands change Environmental Change Strategic Change • rapid evolutions • hyper-competition • technological progress • ‘new’ economy • dynamic strategic plans • managing change • technology improvements • ‘new’ managerial approach

  10. In the past, big fish used to eat small fish Now, fast fish eat slow fish. They hatch and spread every-where, in the North and in the South.

  11. So, why export market analysis? • As just discussed… • trade is growing rapidly and is considered to be one of the most important sources of economic growth for developing and transition countries • efficient production is not sufficient anymore • successful firms/countries need to excel in marketing to identify the best opportunities in foreign countries and distinguish themselves from competitors • Market analysis is the first, necessary, step to formulate a coherent export strategy

  12. Questions of our partners: • National perspective: Positioning in international markets • Where is our competitive advantage? What are the most promising markets for our exports? What should be the priorities for trade promotion? • Trade policy perspective: Market Access • What are the trade barriers we face? What are the scenarios? • Company perspective: Market intelligence • What are the latest market developments? Who are potential business partners?
