Annual Report and Accounts 2006
Global markets provide increasing export prospects for Irish companies that engage in persistent innovation and pursue aggressive international marketing strategies. In addition to existing markets, the emerging economies of the enlarged European Union, the former Soviet Bloc and the rapidly growing markets of China and India are a source of profitable opportunities for proactive companies.
In achieving export sales, the key function of Enterprise Ireland's International Sales and Partnering Division is to facilitate the internationalisation of Irish business. This may take the form of assisting companies to win export sales, supporting clients to establish an in-market presence, or setting up international joint ventures or partnerships. Our global network plays a strong role in this work, by helping companies to access international technology, funding and expertise through our Mentor and Business Accelerator programmes.
