International development is a major challenge for the Groupement, as it is a fact that our sector can only grow through its ability to export.
For this reason, GICAN offers a number of services designed to support companies in their internationalization, often repeated/explained in the International Committee. In addition to the services already mentioned in access to strategic information (trade show reports, market studies, international watch newsletter), GICAN offers its members the following services:
