GTM engineering for trade agencies and programmes.

Trade missions, export programmes and accelerators are judged on outcomes that are hard to prove. Cohorts select themselves, matching runs on forms, and introductions go cold on the flight home. We build the engine behind the programme: the right companies recruited, meetings matched on real buying context, follow-up that happens, and outcomes traced to pipeline.

Where the evidence comes from

Every name on the list comes with a reason it is now.

Who is ready

Expansion signals: international hiring, new offices, trademark filings and partner announcements.

Who is buying

Demand in the target market: funding, hiring, procurement and growth by sector.

Who met whom

Every introduction logged, with a brief for both parties before the meeting.

What happened next

Pipeline and deals traced back to the programme, month by month.

And here is where we get it

Public

Public sources

Tender and procurement portals, company registries, trade and customs statistics, foreign investment announcements, job posts showing expansion.

Licensed

Data we license

Company and sector databases in the target market, trade data, buyer directories, event attendee lists.

Your data

Your own systems

The programme CRM, past cohort outcomes, commissioner meeting notes, and what happened to every introduction you have ever made.

Every signal on this page is one we can collect. Some are public, some come from data we license, and some are already inside your systems. What is available varies by market and by licence, so the workshop settles what can be collected for you before anything is built.

Built in your CRM, with Clay as the data and signal layer. You see every approach and every reply, every week.

What is GTM engineering for a trade agency?

Applying account data, buying signals and automated follow-up to the whole programme: recruiting the right companies, matching meetings on real buying context, keeping introductions alive, and tracking outcomes to pipeline.

Can you start with a single mission?

Yes. One mission proves the model before it runs across the programme calendar.

Do you work with agencies outside Singapore?

Yes. We are based in Singapore and work with agencies bringing companies into Asia Pacific and taking them out of it.

Where does the data behind these signals come from?

Three places. Public sources such as tender and procurement portals, company registries, trade and customs statistics, foreign investment announcements, job posts showing expansion. Data we license: company and sector databases in the target market, trade data, buyer directories, event attendee lists. And your own systems: the programme CRM, past cohort outcomes, commissioner meeting notes, and what happened to every introduction you have ever made. What is available varies by market and by licence, so the workshop settles what can be collected for you before anything is built.
