WTO Readiness and Export Access Create Opportunities for Private Businesses

The 21–22 October seminar organised by the Ministry of Finance and Economy with the Asian Development Bank addressed private-sector readiness for WTO accession and opportunities to improve market access. These themes are relevant to entrepreneurs and smaller businesses seeking to expand beyond domestic markets. Startups and business-support organisations can explore export-readiness tools, digital trade services and business planning support. No new startup funding round or verified venture investment amount was announced during the reporting period.
