candidates, to identifying potential prospects with corporate
acquisition goals closely matched to a client's business
objectives. Our clients include private sector and foreign
government trade delegations.
Trade Shows And Conferences
We identify opportunities for clients, based on their market
development objectives or business partner relationships. Trade
shows are a tremendous undertaking. To ensure an organization
realizes full value on its investment - both employee time and
exhibit costs - it must choose the right trade shows, then
develop a strategic plan for each event. We help ensure our
clients maximize their effectiveness at trade shows. We assist
clients with:

We help clients develop distributor and/or joint venture
relationships with OEMs, VARs and system integrators. Potential
channel partners are identified for the client using a multi-
tier approach focusing on geographic and vertical market
criteria. Coordinated media monitoring provides relevant market
and competitor-related intelligence for incorporation in
marketing plans.
Market Entry Strategies
We help clients understand market opportunities. We select and
define potential markets, calculate risks, calculate returns and
investment requirements, and create unique market positions for
technology offerings. We determine how to reach target customers
and create strategies that align the key tasks needed to reach
prospects with the marketing and sales resources (channels,
media, etc.) best suited for the tasks.
Marketing Plan Development
We assist clients with the preparation of a marketing plan to
ensure adequate attention is given to analysing opportunities.
We assess key market trends, vertical market opportunities,
analyse the client's strengths and weaknesses related to new
market development efforts, then recommend the best product
