CEPI is: Awareness
CEPI is: Awareness
Internationalization does not mean exporting or selling abroad.
Being internationalized means being companies and entrepreneurs aware of global markets, capable of interacting with foreign investors, suppliers from distant countries, foreign partners, distributors, and customers of all nationalities.
Being internationalized means being aware of one's market position, of the presence or absence of competitors, knowing the distribution structures, local regulations, methods, and customs.
In other words, it means to depart from our backyard to confront with the globalized world. This is the key to competitiveness in our days and the only way to become "big" companies while remaining SMEs.
Since 1968, CEPI supported member companies to take the necessary steps to get out of their domestic sea and move towards wider horizons.
And this is possible thanks to market analyzes, trade fairs, collectives events, business missions, b2b meetings, seminars with experts, and exchange of experiences between the various entrepreneurs.
Participation in associative life is a great opportunity for companies that are born small but have the will to think big and do not even know of the existence of such available tools .
CEPI offers these companies instruments and knowledge to explore the markets, and all the nautical maps and coordinates to learn about their position among markets: to grow by sailing beyond the internal seas toward the entire global market.
