BOIM – JoinGlobal
Business Opportunities in International Markets
There are many global challenges that require innovative and high-quality technological solutions. Consequently, this presents an increasing number of business opportunities in new and exciting international markets, especially for businesses that work in the ICT sector in Oulu. However, whilst the benefits are potentially enormous, it can be tricky for companies to establish which path is the most suitable for their operations. Some of the questions that need to be considered include:
- Where are the best territories to sell products and/or services?
- Are there options to collaborate with other companies/organisations outside of Finland?
- What opportunities are there for investment that can go towards international expansion?
Linking Oulu ICT Companies to Global Value Chains
BOIM – Join Global is a project that is specifically aimed towards supporting Oulu-based SMEs with ambitions to expand internationally. This is an opportunity for companies to access global value chains and apply their cutting edge expertise and solutions to new markets. Through successful integration, this will strengthen the ecosystem of the entire Oulu region and bring our unique Arctic know-how to new customers and stakeholders around the world.
