Export Marketing + Investment Promotion

“Where we’re going, we don’t need roads.”
– Dr. Emmett Brown

Global Investment Promotion + Advertising

95% of the world’s consumers are outside the US. And 90% of the world’s consumers are outside the EU. The global opportunity is self-evident for so many brands, even if the challenge seems huge. For our clients, export marketing and investment promotion is about relevancy as much as returns. Whether you’re an exporter looking to increase international sales or an economic development board seeking to attract new pools of investment, your strategy must resonate with audiences worldwide.

Reports on the death of globalization have been greatly exaggerated, to paraphrase Mark Twain. But what’s certain is that the global marketplace is changing. Radically and rapidly. Export marketing and investment promotion are completely different than when Criterion Global was founded in 2009, yet they still are and arguably have always been inherently nuanced endeavors. Expanding your reach beyond borders is not just a growth strategy; it’s a hedge against economic vulnerabilities and a way to thrive amid uncertainty.

Criterion Global has supported the growth of banks, funds, private-wealth management firms, insurers, asset managers, and consumer finance products seeking to build brand equity and impact decision-making in the eyes of both consumers and commercial entities.
