Business and International development is rapidly expanding mainly in global multinational companies and conglomerates, but also in innovative SMEs. In fact, companies know that their business development goes through the conquest of international markets.
The attractiveness of the emerging markets or BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and now South Africa), which are new and at the same time challenging, is increasingly high, as these countries generate the world’s strongest growth rates.
The analysis of their potential, the elaboration of the strategy to adopt in order to compete in these markets become more and more complex.
In order to take advantage of such opportunities, the companies need a targeted and very subtle analysis of actors and market evolution. This stage is a part of an effective competitive intelligence process.
