Fostering Internationalisation of Malta-based companies

TradeMalta, in partnership with HSBC, is pleased to announce the launch of its annual Go Global: Internationalisation and Export Management programme. It is designed to assist Malta- based businesses to develop the right skills and competences to grow their business internationally. The 10-week intensive training programme, commencing on 4th October 2023, aims to bring fresh and innovative perspectives to novice exporters across Malta and Gozo.

Go Global covers a range of topics, including internationalisation opportunities and risks, international market research, legal issues, and the role of technology in internationalisation.

The programme, which will run on a weekly basis, ending on 6 December 2023, is aimed at novice exporters, export department managers, and business development managers, providing them with comprehensive insights into the intricacies of international business.

The programme is a testament to TradeMalta's commitment to aid companies in taking their first steps into the world of internationalisation. This is made possible through the support of HSBC Malta, which backs TradeMalta in its mission to propel local businesses onto the global stage.
