Wave Sanitation Services was founded in 2000. It offers services in solid waste management, medical waste management and waste-water treatment. Wave has branch offices around Botswana and an office in South Africa. It has started exporting its medical waste management service to South Africa and hope to expand to Mozambique soon. The company built a strong partnership with local authorities, businesses and communities by becoming a main sponsor of the "Clean Up the World Campaign" in Botswana. Its involvement in this community initiative has accorded the company a remarkable position in Botswana in terms of corporate social responsibility (CSR). The strong local contacts it build provide the sound references needed to develop the company's business across the borders from Botswana.

Wave Sanitation Services was founded in 2000, offering waste-water treatment, a toilet rental service and solid waste management. People at Wave understand that in a cleaner environment, all industrial sectors can perform efficiently and generate sustained profits. The world market for environmental clean-up services reached US$376 billion in 2002, according to Environmental Business International. However, despite the need for environmental services, governments in developing economies are sometimes unable to afford such environmental services. Botswana is a small economy of 1.7 million people; entering international markets is, therefore, a priority. To address the concerns of global competition, Wave has embarked on a policy of smart partnerships with a regional company and an intern...

While service firms account for much of southern Africa's economic growth and new jobs, export strategies in the region have rarely focused on this "invisible" sector. Countries need to be more sensitive to the fact that trade in services exists and represents enormous economic opportunities, including between countries in the South. With that aim, ITC organized a "Bridges across Borders" meeting for service sector associations from nine countries in southern Africa. Representatives from the association exchanged information about their markets and prospected for business opportunities for their firms. The Government of South Africa will review its incentive program to ensure that the service sector receives the lion's share. To facilitate cooperation, ITC organized 616 bilateral consul...

In an interview, Simon Anholt, a leading specialist in creating brand strategies for countries, talked about how a country's "brand" can help or hinder its exports. He said that the biggest danger is people making naive comparisons between branding in the private sector and what it can do for countries. There is recognition that image may be one of the primary barriers to economic development, but methodologies from the corporate sector applied clumsily onto national development are extremely dangerous. Countries can prepare a brand strategy that shows what their image would need to be to achieve their economic and social goals, and how to deserve that image. Branding is not what most people think it is. It is one of the key creators and sustainers of wealth in developed countries. Ther...

African countries stand to gain from completing the current round of WTO negotiations. ITC is helping developing countries re-engage in world trade talks through a series of regional workshops that bring business and government together to assess their gains and sharpen negotiating strategies. Business in developing countries is advocating strongly for a return to the negotiating table, but it is an often-neglected voice in trade talks. ITC's Business for Development workshops help business leaders make their case with government negotiators and contribute to more targeted national negotiating positions. The series got off to a successful start in Nairobi (30-31 March), where participants from eastern and southern Africa discussed their expectations from the Doha Development Round of gl...
