INTRODUCTION<br />
from <strong>Caribbean</strong> <strong>Export</strong>
Promoting Trade,<br />
<strong>Export</strong> <strong>Development</strong><br />
and Investment Globally<br />
Headquartered in Barbados, with a sub-regional <strong>of</strong>fice in the<br />
Dominican Republic, <strong>Caribbean</strong> <strong>Export</strong> <strong>Development</strong> <strong>Agency</strong><br />
(<strong>Caribbean</strong> <strong>Export</strong>) is a regional trade and export development<br />
and investment promotion organization <strong>of</strong> the Forum<br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>Caribbean</strong> States (CARIFORUM) and is the beneficiary <strong>of</strong><br />
financing from the European Union (EU) for the 10th European<br />
<strong>Development</strong> Fund (EDF) under which the <strong>Agency</strong> is<br />
responsible for the implementation <strong>of</strong> the Regional Private<br />
Sector <strong>Development</strong> Programme (RPSDP).<br />
The overall goal <strong>of</strong> the 10th EDF RPSDP is to contribute<br />
to the gradual integration <strong>of</strong> CARIFORUM countries into<br />
the World Economy and by so doing, to enhance economic<br />
growth and by extension alleviate poverty. The 10th EDF<br />
RPSDP has four specific objectives, namely:<br />
a. Enhancing competitiveness and promoting innovation<br />
among CARIFORUM’s private sector;<br />
b. Promoting trade and export development among<br />
CARIFORUM states;<br />
c. Promoting stronger trade and investment relations<br />
among CARIFORUM and the French <strong>Caribbean</strong><br />
Outermost Regions (FCORs) as well as the European<br />
Union (EU) Overseas Countries and Territories in the<br />
<strong>Caribbean</strong>; and<br />
d. Promoting stronger trade and investment cooperation<br />
between CARICOM and the Dominican Republic (DR).<br />
The project also provides a complementary objective <strong>of</strong><br />
strengthening the institutional capacity <strong>of</strong> <strong>Caribbean</strong> <strong>Export</strong><br />
to implement trade and investment promotion programmes<br />
in the region through its export development<br />
programming and through support to the <strong>Caribbean</strong> Association<br />
<strong>of</strong> Investment Promotion Agencies (CAIPA).<br />
The <strong>Agency</strong>’s vision is to be recognized as the premier regional<br />
organization for trade and investment development and promotion.<br />
Our mission is to increase the competitiveness <strong>of</strong> the<br />
<strong>Caribbean</strong> countries by providing quality trade and investment<br />
development and promotion services through effective programme<br />
execution and strategic partnerships.<br />
<strong>Caribbean</strong> <strong>Export</strong> works closely with the CARIFORUM Directorate,<br />
relevant government ministries across the <strong>Caribbean</strong>,<br />
and with other public and private sector agencies that<br />
have responsibilities to develop and promote business,<br />
trade and investment. We also collaborate with organisations<br />
such as the European Union (EU), the Inter-American<br />
<strong>Development</strong> Bank (IADB), the <strong>Caribbean</strong> <strong>Development</strong><br />
Bank (CDB) and the UK Department for International <strong>Development</strong><br />
(DFID), which are our main sources <strong>of</strong> funds for a<br />
range <strong>of</strong> development-focused projects and programmes.<br />
Our Board <strong>of</strong> Directors is appointed by the CARIFORUM<br />
states and is accountable to a CARIFORUM Council <strong>of</strong> Ministers.<br />
Our operations are financed through annual contributions<br />
from member states, donor funds and revenue generated<br />
through our services.<br />
The <strong>Agency</strong> promotes trade and investment through technical<br />
and financial support, regional promotion, deepening integration<br />
and cooperation and exploiting trade agreements.<br />
Priority sectors include: Creative Industries, such as fashion,<br />
music and audio-visual; Health and Wellness; Pr<strong>of</strong>essional<br />
Services, such as management consultants, architects and<br />
engineers; Agro-Processing; Light Manufacturing; Specialty<br />
Foods; Specialized Tourism; and Alternative Energy.<br />
<strong>Caribbean</strong> <strong>Export</strong> looks forward to supporting the upcoming<br />
Study Tours to Manchester (United Kingdom), Berlin (Germany)<br />
and Paris (France) and welcomes the opportunity to assist<br />
in strengthening the capacity <strong>of</strong> the region’s private sector<br />
as they take advantage <strong>of</strong> the prospects available under<br />
the CARIFORUM-EU Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA).<br />

As Head <strong>of</strong> the implementation unit <strong>of</strong> the ACP Business<br />
Climate facility, in short BizClim, it is for me a great honour<br />
to be associated with the great efforts made by the<br />
<strong>Caribbean</strong> region to jump-start the use <strong>of</strong> the Economic<br />
Partnership Agreement (EPA), by creating awareness about<br />
the Agreement and promoting business opportunities within<br />
sectors that are readily positioned to do business with<br />
the European Union.<br />
Since the inception <strong>of</strong> the second phase <strong>of</strong> BizClim in August<br />
2010, we have relentlessly seeking closer collaboration with<br />
business leaders with the ultimate aim <strong>of</strong> together boosting<br />
the business climate in ACP countries and enhancing trade<br />
and investment between them and the European Union. This<br />
pragmatic approach to business climate enhancement has<br />
been underpinning the organization <strong>of</strong> business for a, public-private<br />
dialogue and business meetings.<br />
About four years ago, the first <strong>Caribbean</strong>-EU Business Forum<br />
was born in Barbados, preceded by a study tour to Europe<br />
focused on ICT and the Film sector. Ahead <strong>of</strong> the 2nd <strong>Caribbean</strong><br />
Business Forum, due to take place in London on the 8th<br />
and 9th <strong>of</strong> August, two study tours will be focused on the<br />
<strong>Caribbean</strong> Cultural Industry and manufacturing. The tour on<br />
the cultural industry will be organized in Manchester (United<br />
Kingdom), Berlin (Germany) and Paris (France).<br />
I trust that the networking opportunities - this study tour<br />
will enable – will be the Launchpad for future business and<br />
investment deals. Lessons will be learnt and recommendations<br />
made to create the enabling environment for businesses<br />
to reap the benefits <strong>of</strong> the EPA.<br />
