Coaching

Aimed at the specific needs of emerging exporters, the Coaching component of our Mentoring Program helps eligible publishers become familiar with export sales, meet with stakeholders in target markets, and properly evaluate the efforts needed to penetrate these markets.

The objective of the 2023–2024 Mentoring Program—Argentina is to provide a group of eligible publishers with export expertise to help them familiarize themselves with activities relating to exporting into the Argentinian market (examination and evaluation of their export potential, promotional activities, rights sales, distribution mechanisms).

Coaching activities include a one-on-one online session with the expert consultant on the eligible publishers' potential in the Argentinian market and a webinar providing an overview of publishing in Argentina, as well as information on rights sales and distribution. A recording of the webinar will be made available on our website. Presentation in English with simultaneous French interpretation.
