DHL GoTrade GBSN Fellowship Program for Postgraduate Business Students & SMEs

DHL GoTrade GBSN Fellowship Program for Postgraduate Business Students & SMEs


In furtherance of our mission to improve management and entrepreneurial education, GBSN has partnered with one of its corporate members DPDHL to develop the GoTrade GBSN Fellowship Program.

This Fellowship Program is designed to partner selected postgraduate business students with small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the developing world with the aim of fostering greater cross-border trade.

This directly addresses our collective mission at GBSN –– to improve access to quality, locally relevant management and entrepreneurial education for the developing world.

GoTrade is education and access.

Working with governments and international organizations, we will help to remove red tape at the border and support small and medium sized businesses in developing and least developing countries to increase cross border trade.

We leverage our core logistics competencies and tap into the wealth of knowledge and experience within the DPDHL Group to help countries implement best-in-class policies and procedures at the border and help local businesses to access the global market.

Reduction of trade-related red tape and streamlined logistics performance accelerate the flow of goods and business growth, especially for SMEs, whose success is so critical to achieve sustainable and inclusive economic growth.
