Great benefits, few obstacles
Swiss foreign trade continues to be extremely important for the high level of prosperity in the country. With the GoGlobal Cockpit, S-GE has created a useful tool for internationally active SMEs to easily identify and explore new business opportunities abroad. Administrative aspects such as customs clearance are clearly specified and initial hurdles which Swiss SMEs commonly face when considering the path to internationalization are thereby removed.
Self-service, easy to access, and easy to understand
Digitization provides an enormous amount of potential: Over the past few years, S-GE has developed various digital formats together with partners and expanded its web-based services in export promotion even further. The free tool provides companies with information such as: market comparisons, local framework conditions like average wages, export-related information such as customs tariffs and taxes, and checklists for export procedures. The advantages of the digital platform are evident: Swiss SMEs can obtain tailored support for their export business around the clock. The information is self-service based, straightforward, and easily accessible.
Achieving more together
This great achievement would not have been possible alone. Therefore, we would like to thank all those involved, and in particular the agency Cando for their valuable support.
