Jan – March 2004
SDI commissioned Alliance Hotels to carry out a scoping exercise which will help SDI tackle the issues facing Scottish tourism businesses venturing into international markets. The work aims to provide an understanding about the practical processes and steps a tourism business should consider when looking internationalising - such as routes to market, performance management and e-commerce.
From this, SDI aims to identify the areas where they and Scottish Enterprise can intervene, and implement some recommendations.
Sept – Dec 2004
