BSR Go-abroad
The project BSR Go-abroad develops a blueprint for micro SMEs to help them expand business offers and enter new markets across the Baltic Sea region in order to keep their businesses thriving regardless of any disruptions to come.
In the Baltic Sea Region (BSR), micro-SMEs (micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises) form a vital part of the economic landscape.
However, limited resources, a lack of international networks, and unfamiliarity with internationalisation often prevent them from expanding beyond national borders and engaging in cross-border activities.
BSR Go-abroad addresses these challenges by providing structured support to micro-SMEs aiming to internationalise. Through a transnational partnership of Business Development Organisations from Germany, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Estonia, and Poland, the programme offers tailored guidance to help smaller businesses overcome barriers and seize new opportunities within the BSR.
To date, over 150 micro-SMEs across the region have joined the programme. Participants have refined their strategies, gained international confidence, and begun forming cross-border business connections.
By the end of the project, the BSR Go-abroad blueprint will offer a scalable solution for how other Business Development Organisations and Business Development Authorities can support micro-SMEs in their internationalisation efforts across the region.
