ITAP International Alliance Associates are those companies and individuals that support ITAP through joint marketing and delivery of services. Associates are those professionals certified in one or more of ITAP's intellectual properties (tools). They may partner with ITAP on projects or market ITAP tools to their own clients.
ITAP Associates must meet rigorous criteria for inclusion in the Alliance. ITAP's unique value proposition includes capabilities in working across cultures, so we require that expertise of our associates. Many other companies have associates other countries; ITAP has professionals with cross-cultural expertise in other countries. Because of this difference, ITAP is more effective at serving companies doing cross-border business.
ITAP refers business to its Associates and Affiliate companies and partners with them to serve ITAP clients. For details and information on our wide network of in-country Associate resources, please contact the appropriate ITAP International regional office (click here for locations and contact information).
