Since 2023 NextSales has been a member of the International Trade Council (ITC). For 2026, ITC & NextSales will continue to work together supporting SMEs growing their business.

About International Trade Council
For seven decades, ITC has been fostering global trade by supporting businesses, governments, and trade professionals through networking, advocacy, and knowledge-sharing initiatives.

ITC actively promotes sustainable economic growth by support for SMEs globally, reducing barriers to trade, encouraging foreign direct investment, and facilitating international business opportunities by actively supporting businesses expanding their reach into international markets.

Through a combination of expert-led training programs, trade missions, and market research, they help companies identify new opportunities, advise on sanction compliance, navigate export regulations, and connect with global partners. Their goal is to empower businesses to grow their exports and build sustainable international trade relationships.

About NextSales
NextSales supports IT, High-Tech, Public Safety & Security companies growing their business. Having our headquarters in The Netherlands, this also was our first focus country for our customers.

As years passed by, we expanded to countries like Belgium, Luxembourg and Germany to build networks and find leads & deals for our customers.

When the world changed drastically between 2020-2023 and working remotely was adopted around the world, this opened up new opportunities for NextSales getting in contact with more potential customers worldwide to support them on their journey growing their business not only in the Benelux and Germany, but throughout Europe. We even have done projects for our customers in LATAM in the meantime! We support our customers taking their first steps in new markets and teach them how to do more themselves in the future. Our goal is: Start small & grow bigger, together!

Because doing business in Europe is all about relationship & trust and can vary from country to country, we have local teams in place to help our customers be successful from start to finish. We support with market research, go to market plans, lead generation, sales outsourcing, contract negotiations, deal closing, bid & project management, hand-over to delivery and account management. We know the different cultures, ways of doing business, and we speak the local language.

Where ITC takes companies by the hand in the starting phase with preparation, and building knowledge, the handshake with NextSales is made in the market research phase after which NextSales takes over and translates the plans into pragmatic local activities. This synergy made it clear to both parties to continue joining forces and extending the collaboration for at least the coming year.
