Offered by Government of Saskatchewan, Saskatchewan Trade and Export Partnership
Expanding into new markets or making high-stakes strategic decisions often comes down to one thing: having the right information at the right time. For Saskatchewan businesses exploring export opportunities or assessing unfamiliar markets, the STEP Market Intelligence Services offer hands-on research support designed to remove uncertainty and sharpen decision-making. Delivered by the Saskatchewan Trade and Export Partnership, this program gives companies access to tailored market insights rather than off-the-shelf reports.
Through this service, STEP’s market intelligence specialists work directly with your business to understand your goals and information gaps. The resulting research can include foreign market assessments, competitive and customer intelligence, company lists, and political or economic risk analysis, all customized to your specific situation. The team draws on a deep mix of industry databases, public and private sector sources, and international trade networks, and can supplement desk research with targeted primary research when needed. For businesses facing tight timelines, expedited intelligence support may also be available.
STEP Market Intelligence Services are well suited for small, medium, and larger enterprises in Saskatchewan that need expert guidance before entering a new market, evaluating partners, or refining an export strategy. Support is non-repayable and structured around the scope of each project, making it a practical way to access high-value expertise. Exploring the full details can help you decide whether this research-driven support fits your next growth move.
