Capacity Building  ITC’s Market Analysis Section (MAS) offers a wide range of capacity building and training activities for the business sector and Trade Support Institutions. Programmes take place in both partner countries and Geneva. Capacity building programmes are designed to support export-oriented managers and analysts in developing and transition economies in conducting effective market analysis, one of the foundations of successful export strategies. Capacity building can also be customized to a partner’s specific needs.
