Multilateral collaboration ITC partners with UN agencies, WTO and regional bodies to support MSMEs, presenting a pathway for co-sell or bundled offerings with partners such as ICC, ITU, UNDP and AfCFTA initiatives to expand reach into developing export sectors.

SME export focus As the only agency dedicated to micro, small and medium enterprises, ITC offers a compelling channel to pitch tailored capacity-building, market access programs, and digital trade enablement services to SME exporters in target markets.

Digital trade expansion Recent partnerships to expand digital trade opportunities and e-commerce readiness, plus involvement in Ready4Trade programs, indicate opportunities to provide technology-enabled training, platforms, and analytics to SMEs transitioning online.

Geographic momentum Active engagements across Africa, the Middle East, Central Asia and Gulf regions signal potential for region-specific solutions, including export readiness, market diagnostics, and trade facilitation that can be packaged for government or private sector clients.

Sustainability and inclusion ITC’s mission to elevate women, youth and poor communities through vibrant export sectors presents sales avenues for women-led and youth-focused SME programs, impact-first funding, and inclusive supply-chain initiatives with potential yields in CSR and development finance partnerships.
