As the State Government of Victoria’s premier trade facilitation and promotion agency, our global network of 24 Trade and Investment (VGTI) offices, including our Head Office in Melbourne, is the largest of any Australian state or territory.
Our global footprint helps us achieve our mission of connecting Victoria to the world and gives us an on-the-ground advantage to support you with direct access to key decision makers and market intelligence.
We are a diverse group of dedicated trade and investment specialists spread across 15 countries and led by 8 Commissioners and Heads of Posts. Collectively, we speak over 50 languages and originate from more than 25 countries. We think big and work at the forefront of trade development, are always available, easy to work with, and focus on your needs.
Global Victoria’s services are available for a wide range of Victorian goods and services exporters, including companies discovering exports for the first time and thinking about taking that step. We also support companies that are expanding rapidly, where we can help amplify commercial potential in international markets. We exist to help Victorian businesses navigate the complexities of international trade and understand the emerging opportunities, such as the accelerated digitalisation of trade.
We provide opportunities to promote major global exporters across multiple international markets and can help them measure their capability, identify gaps, and provide opportunities to bridge them. We also work with a range of organisations who share our common goal of supporting exporting firms to succeed in overseas markets. This includes bilateral chambers of commerce, industry associations and major event organisers.
Global Victoria supports universities, TAFEs, private education providers as well as organisations that support the international education ecosystem. International students are also important clients for Global Victoria, and through Study Melbourne, we continue to deliver a suite of support services, as well as programs to build the employability and entrepreneurial skills of students to help them succeed.
