“ The TAP played an essential role when our company, Gestion Son Image Iinc. started building a strategy for its international expansion. Thanks to this program, our team has been able to better define its objectives and implement a realistic and coherent long-term development plan.
Expert advice, particularly on public funding, tax and legal issues, as well as one-to-one support, helped us resolve crucial questions before going any further in our internationalization process.
We also appreciated participating in a cohort specifically focused on the cultural and creative industries, which matched our particular needs and reality.”
“ The TAP consolidated what we had already established and met our essential needs before we started exporting. The training was very useful and practical. The speakers were experienced and relevant.”
“ Thanks to the TAP, we’ve become aware of the opportunities, but above all, of the concrete challenges that we’re going to face in our international roll-out.
Given the inherent risks associated with our export project, the structured training and competent, experienced speakers helped us to be better prepared.”
“Although exports already represent the majority of our revenue, we needed to gain a better understanding of all facets of successful exporting. The Trade Accelerator Program (TAP) helped us structure our approach by anticipating the efforts and difficulties entailed in the regulatory, tax-related, legal, logistical and commercial aspects of exporting. Throughout the program, highly skilled and accessible TAP experts answered our questions and helped us assess the challenges ahead and clarify our international products and services!”
“I don’t believe in the self-made man: it is through validation and co-development that we succeed in excelling and creating synergy to surpass ourselves. TAP is a success because of its practical resources and experienced speakers, provided you take the time to invest in the learning process.”
“According to Ms. Andraos, everyone would benefit from participating in this type of program: “The right time to do it is right away, as soon as you have an export project, even if you don’t have a contract yet. The program provides access to a lot of resources from varying backgrounds, and it’s nice to know about them early on.”
“The TAP gave us an overview of best practices for exporting and an in-depth understanding of the tools and resources available to incorporate them into our business strategy.
All of the expertise shared during the program has made us more aware of the impact that exporting will have on our business model and has better prepared us to anticipate it in our sales process.”
“The TAP was a valuable source of support in our strategic analysis for LatenceTech’s international expansion, particularly in Europe and Asia. Over the course of the program, we assessed the current situation, set clear objectives and drew up a short- and medium-term action plan to achieve them. We’re already seeing positive results, with the first orders coming in from Europe, in particular from Orange and Capgemini.”
“The TAP has been a key element in refining our approach to export projects, while giving us a better understanding of best practices and potential risks.
The program’s configuration is suitable for companies of all sizes and types. Participants learn from experts and from the international experience of other companies on the program.
The program’s extensive access to external resources is another of its advantages, which remain relevant even after the TAP has ended.”
“I would recommend the TAP to my network. The exposure to my cohort’s wide range of industries was useful in developing my strategy and export plan.”
“Our participation in the TAP was very beneficial for our company. The numerous specialized speakers were particularly helpful and gave us invaluable advice on exporting, financing and tax issues. What’s more, our interactions with participating manufacturing companies were very enriching!”
“I would recommend the TAP as a great way to meet a host of professionals in financing, logistics, production, etc. In just a few weeks, the training sessions helped us clarify the steps and decisions required in order to begin exporting.”
“I would recommend the TAP to help you think through all the aspects of your export plan and benefit from useful interactions with manufacturing companies. Our participation in the TAP helped us obtain financial assistance for our website, as well as training in legal and copyright issues!”
“Our company participated in the TAP training program as part of the 43rd cohort, dedicated to technology. The way the courses are run, the subjects covered and the quality of the instructors make this program an essential preparatory step for any company wishing to develop international business activities. ”
