Maribor Starts Project to Help Companies Enter Foreign Markets

Maribor, 19 April

The Regional Development Agency in Maribor presented on Thursday Intra, a project which aims to boost competitiveness of small and mid-sized companies from border regions and help them enter foreign markets.

Project manager Vladimir Rudl told the press that the objective was to train 20 consultants who would help companies enter foreign markets.
To avoid over-theorising, the participants in the EU-funded project would work on cases of ten existing companies and draft prepare business plans for entering specific markets.
Seminars will take place between April and November, while the closing conference is planned for March 2008.
The first module is already under way. The participants already listened to a lecture on an analysis of companies and business environment by British professor Lynn Shaw.
The project is also carried out in Hungary and Greece.
