International Development

If a company wants to become involved in international development, the barriers to entry include regulatory complexities, some harsh socio-economic realities and poor infrastructure.

Apart from setting up an appropriate organisational structure and securing investments, there are some serious decisions to take before embarking on this course.

How can a local population with low purchasing power be targeted profitably, for example? What can be prioritised in terms of development opportunities for international as well as for local companies? Does a company have a new technology that offers economic development acceleration? And what are the key drivers for investment?
