International Industry and Market Research

Jeannie Bail

Introduction

In addition to possessing business intelligence on a particular company, it’s critical to know about the industry it operates in, its competition and who its current or future customers are, along with key trends. The information acquired in all these areas will better inform decision making and shape your analysis whether you are trying to launch a new company based outside Canada, enter a new foreign market or evaluate an existing international entity for investment purposes.
