There are currently about 20 automobile suppliers with Swedish roots in Michigan, and, according to [Lennart Johansson], there is room for more. "But before attempting to expand to a global market, the suppliers' products need to be established in local markets," he says. "The Swedes are inventive and competent, although they're not great at selling their products or marketing themselves, skills that Americans practice in school." However, Lennart believes that with focus and unique product solutions, Swedish suppliers will continue to be successful competitors in global markets. "Especially now that the trend is to give suppliers commissions to deliver entire technical solutions, from product development to delivery - an area where the Swedes already possess expertise," he adds.

This paper investigates the impact of Austrian foreign direct investment on domestic employment in five new EU member states from Central and Eastern Europe (NMS5). It estimates both a static and a dynamic labor demand model using sector data for the period 1993-2004 where domestic employment depends on value added, real wage, the net capital stock and time effects. In particular, we investigate the potential complementary/ substitutive relationship between domestic and foreign affiliate employment of Austrian multinationals, disaggregated by two partner regions (that is, EU15 and NMS5). Estimates obtained using the static fixed-effects model show that domestic employment effects of foreign activities depend on the sector and the partner country (or region) considered.

A change is under way. Business, government and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) have realized that they must join forces if they are to tackle one of the biggest moral challenges of this century: ending poverty. Central to this challenge is creating wealth through trade. ITC works with countries to build trade support capacities which transform potential into real export capability. It helps them to gain access to an information infrastructure so that their firms understand market opportunities and can make educated business decisions. But ITC alone cannot bring about change. To begin to tackle poverty, it works with partners, including local government authorities, NGOs, communities, financial institutions, international organizations and the corporate world. The work at the Inte...

The article presents the how three developing countries: Eastern Cape in South Africa, Brazil and India developed. At Eastern Cape in South Africa, three years ago, ITC helped to launch a project to produce and export aloe ferox-based products. Since then it has helped to create nearly 170 jobs. Costa do Sauipe is Brazil's largest resort, known for the beauty of its natural environment. But many visitors may not realize the poverty of the people living near it. ITC helped eight very poor communities, with a population of just over 7,000 people, to develop a business plan for selling products and services to the very rich resort. Meanwhile, driven by keen competition in world spice markets and negative environmental effects of intensive spice cultivation, ITC and the Spices Board of Indi...
