Research options

Entering strategy

Do you want to enter a new market in a country of your choice? We can help by researching all the factors that go into starting up business in this specific country. We can even help you decide which country is best.

Market research

Through market research we can identify and define market opportunities for clients. To gain more insights into consumer behavior or a specific target-group, data can be gathered and analyzed. Research for companies in the B2B industry is also possible.

Value chain analysis

Through this analysis, we can investigate possibilities in every stage of the supply chain. For example, we can conduct research about suppliers, distributors, or (potential) customers. Moreover, we can analyze opportunities for outsourcing business or foreign direct investment opportunities.

Competitor analysis

A competitor analysis considers the nature and extent of the competition. Additionally, it identifies major competitors, their strengths and weaknesses and those of their products, their objectives, their strategies and their technologies. Also, the market structure is examined closely.

Feasibility analysis

With this analysis, we can examine the feasibility of entry into the chosen market. We can evaluate your business position and formulate a strategy of entry based on the results. This analysis can also be performed on an industry level.

Supplier analysis

In this analysis, we investigate the supplier landscape and identify the best and most fitting suppliers for your company.
