In recent years, there has been much greater awareness of the need to engage the private sector directly in policy dialogue, particularly to trade negotiations related to enhanced market access.

The result is a collaborative environment with strengthened public-private dialogue that focuses on export development enabling the country to manage the implementation, monitoring and updating of the export strategy.
