Funders

Funded by the International Trade Council

The Foreign Direct Investment and Export Promotion Insights Project is proudly funded by the International Trade Council (ITC), a globally recognized organization dedicated to fostering international trade and market expansion. The ITC’s primary constituents are businesses seeking opportunities for overseas trade and market growth. Through its extensive network and resources, the ITC supports businesses in navigating the complexities of international markets, promoting economic development, and facilitating global trade partnerships.

Project Funding and Duration

The funding for the Foreign Direct Investment and Export Promotion Insights Project is secured until the end of 2029. This long-term financial commitment ensures that the project can provide continuous and valuable insights to its target audience. The funding covers the development and maintenance of the analytical platform, data acquisition, and integration, as well as the dissemination of findings to the relevant stakeholders.

Free Confidential Access for Government Agencies

As part of the ITC’s mission to support economic development, the project offers free access to its outputs for government FDI, export promotion, and economic development agencies, as well as related government ministries. These agencies will benefit from detailed trade analysis, actionable insights, and strategic recommendations without any financial burden for the duration of the project. This support is intended to enhance their capabilities in attracting foreign investment, promoting exports, and developing robust economic policies.
