The globalization of markets is characterized by an aggressive competitive environment and a development scenario of continuing and accelerated technological innovation and change that can generate disruptions anytime, anywhere. The main players in this context are, on the one hand, the multinational enterprises (MNEs) and their evolving internationalization strategies; and on the other hand, governments and enterprises of developing countries, who aim at technological progress, economic growth and social development by taking advantage of foreign direct investment and other forms of association to MNEs operations such as sub-contracting, original equipment manufacturing (OEM), participation in global supply chains and value chains (GSCs, GVCs), global manufacturing networks (GMNs), joint ventures (JVs) and other kinds of business alliances. This training package will bring an understanding of the strategies and behaviour of multinational companies, of the opportunities available for growth and internationalization in that context, and of how to seize and take advantage of such opportunities to move higher in the supply and value chains.
