GETTING STARTED

I am a U.S. company looking for USTDA assistance. Where do I start?

If you have a partner in an emerging market, visit our guide for proposing sole-source project preparation activities. USTDA is unable to support projects without an identified partner in an emerging market.

I am a foreign project sponsor looking for USTDA assistance. Where do I start? ?

USTDA has guides for proposing a competed activity or, if you already have a U.S. partner, for proposing a sole-source activity.

I am a U.S. supplier and want to sell my product overseas. Can USTDA help me break into the market?

U.S. companies with an existing foreign partner are welcome to apply for assistance by proposing a project. For support entering new markets, companies may wish to contact their local U.S. Commercial Service Office.

Does USTDA offer financing for project implementation?

USTDA funds project preparation, such as feasibility studies, technical assistance, and pilot projects. The Agency does not finance project implementation.

I am a U.S. company. Can you fund a visit from a foreign delegation to my facility?
