Testimonials

"I found your site extremely useful and full of important information which I needed when dealing with a client from the Netherlands! I found all of the information necessary to feel prepared about their culture and work ethics. I have a Master's degree in International Marketing, and wish that I knew about your site when I was in school! Thank you very much!"
Renu from Pennsylvania

"Thanks for providing such a wealth of information on countries and their economies. Your site is well-organized and maintained, easy to navigate, and the links are incredibly useful. I also enjoy the polls. I have used your site for the last 6 months to write a number of papers, as well as to research foreign economies and markets during my internship last summer with the US Dept of Commerce. You have made my life much easier and I am in your debt. Thanks again."
Justin from Minnesota

"globalEDGE became a very powerful tool when I worked on the project of analyzing low cost country opportunities at Whirlpool this summer. It is a portal of an unbelievably large amount of information and data regarding international business. Additionally, the methodology used to analyze the emerging markets is very thought-provoking. globalEDGE was very helpful to my project and I think I will use it more frequently in the future."
