covid-19 outbreak: HOw is it affecting international business?

Traditionally, international trade shows and trade missions have been key to create business opportunities for foreign companies who seek internationalization of their products and services. However, the current global landscape is discouraging international traveling and large gatherings, therefore, preventing the execution of trade events.

There are alternative methods to do business. Online or over-the-phone prospection and virtual B2B meetings are now crucial to continue doing international business regardless of travel restrictions and social distancing. However, to be successful, companies still need to understand the social and cultural characteristics, the legal framework, and the key players around their target market.

Then, how can you continue to do international business?
