ITC is the joint agency of the World Trade Organization and the United Nations (through the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development). As the development partner for small business export success, ITC’s goal is to help developing and transition countries achieve sustainable human development through exports.

ITC provides country-and client-specific tailored support through unique advisory services, capacity building, training and mentoring, free tools and business data, and trade-specific publications. We improve the availability and use of trade intelligence; strengthen trade support institutions; enhance policies for the benefit of exporting enterprises; build the export capacity of enterprises to respond to market opportunities; and mainstream inclusiveness. We leverage the current digital momentum, the exponential use of e-commerce platforms and artificial intelligence by incorporating digital elements in all of our projects. We connect micro, small and medium-sized enterprises to global and regional value chains, a major contributor to economic growth and poverty reduction.
