Expand your horizons through internationalisation
Scotland’s world-class knowledge, expertise and commitment to social, economic, and environmental justice holds vast potential to deliver significant impact and commercial viability internationally – we stand ready to guide enterprises towards that goal.
To successfully address global issues and achieve international growth, entrepreneurs require a deep understanding of the problems they’re tackling and the local markets they are seeking to enter. Taking the time to fully grasp complex challenges, who they affect, and identifying root causes helps reveal sustainable and effective solutions. Learning from past efforts also helps steer innovative entrepreneurs towards approaches more likely to enact positive change and allow for successful integration into new markets.
It is not uncommon for new entrepreneurs to rush into action without investing enough time and effort to understand such vital information, including identifying precisely where solutions are needed, how to provide value, and what the right business model is. From a commercial perspective, this invariably leads to a lack of sustainability.
Typical challenges that entrepreneurs face include: designing contextualised products or services, offering competitive prices suited to local markets, navigating foreign market requirements, establishing effective distribution channels and value chains, providing technical support and after-sales service, and adapting marketing to local contexts. This is where Just Enterprise’s proven expertise in these areas comes in.
