7 billion people in the world and growing. Do you have a plan? 

Today the U. S. represents just 4.5% of the world's population.  

The earth's population of 7 billion people with fast growing economies in emerging countries and intergrated communications means that more opportunity for growth now exists outside the U.S. than ever before.

Globalization is impacting associations in profound ways, driving expanded member expectations, creating new sources of competition and opening new opportunities for growth.

Governments, companies, professions and people at all levels live in an inter-connected, inter-dependent world.  The effects of globalization, and the need to manage its implications, are rapidly changing what members and leaders expect from their trade and professional associations.    

The real opportunities for growth today are in Europe, Asia, Latin America and Africa.

Most US based associations have already achieved much of the potential growth avaiable and now need to look to new, untapped markets.
Because international business develop is fraught with new and unexpected challenges, it is critical to prepare your organization and leadership to develop an international strategy and business plan.

Guidance based on experience in growing organizations globally will help you define the optimal path and help to avoid the most common errors.

We recommend you use the "Global Growth Strategies: The International Association" white paper and our research report on how associations are approaching international development. These documents will help you frame the discussion in your organization and better prepare you to craft a global business plan.
