EXCLUSIVE IPA/EDO
REPRESENTATION
Countries, Regions & Cities
Many Investment Promotion Agencies (IPA) and Economic Development Organizations (EDO) have decided to face the strong competition in attracting foreign direct investment from key markets with foreign branch offices.
The decision by a government agency to set up its own foreign office is in most cases cost-intensive, and it takes time and resources to recruit and educate the team, build local market knowledge and connect with the necessary multipliers.
Global Aldea offers a "shortcut" to having your own office in Germany and Europe. We know the European market and understand corporate decision-making processes. At the same time, we also understand the results-oriented expectations of government agencies.
Global Aldea can represent your organization in Europe and help with your lead generation efforts. Global Aldea makes every effort to set and work with realistic targets and to avoid any type of conflict (geographically as well as based on focus industries). We will always communicate openly with our existing clients to provide an individual service and meet our clients’ expectations.

INDIVIDUAL MARKET RESEARCH & STUDIES
Europe, Latin America & North America
Deciding to work internationally is only the first step: it requires preparation and in-depth market knowledge. Usually, a new business opportunity or the expansion of an already existing client are reasons to consider a new market entry.
Global Aldea can support your market entry project and provide a detailed overview of the local economic and political situation at country, regional or city level. We can analyze the market situation in your target market and provide a list of potential competitors or identify potential partners.
Global Aldea can also analyze the potential for receiving start-up aid or the eligibility for other government incentive programs that might be available for your project.
Especially for Latin American market entries, we can help you better understand the business culture and formalities that are crucial to doing business.
