The Shanghai Enterprises Going Global service platform has been launched to support businesses pursuing overseas expansion.

Designed as a unified and authoritative gateway, the platform connects businesses with professional service providers.

It is particularly beneficial for small and medium-sized enterprises that often encounter challenges such as information mismatches during their global expansion efforts.

Businesses can access the platform easily by visiting its official website or searching for its official account or mini-program (上海市企业走出去综合服务平台) on the WeChat application. Users can log in seamlessly through their Suishenban accounts to access its full range of functions.

A defining feature of the platform is its transformation of traditionally intangible advisory services into structured and clearly categorized offerings. Through a one-stop, shelf-style online display, enterprises can efficiently identify and compare the products and services most relevant to their international strategies.

The homepage is organized into 10 principal sections, including Information Services, Service Guide, Financial Support, Professional Services and Training and Events.

Among these, Professional Services, Market Information, and Government Services have attracted the greatest attention, reflecting the core priorities of businesses preparing to expand overseas.

Professional services are provided by the Shanghai Professional Service Alliance for Enterprises Going Global, which has selected 50 agencies with extensive expertise and diverse service portfolios.

These agencies have a global network covering more than 165 countries and regions, offering robust support for overseas ventures. Detailed directories of the agencies are listed on the platform.

In addition, the platform consolidates 83 government service items across 11 major categories. These resources are provided to enterprises seeking a comprehensive overview of the support available for their international endeavors.

For those seeking in-person consultations, the platform's Service Guide section allows them to book appointments at service points across 15 districts of the city.

Moreover, sub-platforms located in Pudong New Area, Lin-gang Special Area, and the Hongqiao International Central Business District are open for on-site visits.

The platform's Training and Events section provides a dynamically updated calendar for those interested in seminars and salons on global expansion.

For further inquiries, the Message and Communication section provides direct consultation support, ensuring businesses have prompt access to authoritative guidance.
