Are you ready to export?

Enterprise Ireland has developed a process to assist you in a systematic way with your export development needs. The aim of the First Flight Programme is to save you time and expense, and to help you manage the risk associated with entering new markets.
Process
A structured self-evaluation process is carried out by you and your assigned Development Adviser, or an experienced export Mentor, in order to develop an action plan addressing your company's individual needs.

There are six areas of evaluation to help you assess your export readiness:
• Your company now
• Your company's performance
• Management resources/expectations
• Export market knowledge
• The business case
• Funding/budget
