Project<\/strong>: Proyecto had grown quickly, but having its entire business in Mexico exposed it to significant country (including regulatory) and currency risk.

Proyecto believed its business model was replicable in other countries in Latin America. The SGE Immersion team assessed expansion opportunities in the region, taking into account a number of critical factors such as the solar insolation of the country, electricity tariffs, local electricity market\/regulations, local fiscal regulation, culture, business environment, and the local competitive environment in order to provide the company recommendations on how best to prioritize the potential new markets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":14478,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"sponsor_industry":[859],"sponsor_region":[880],"class_list":["post-14477","sponsored-project","type-sponsored-project","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","sponsor_industry-energy","sponsor_region-latin-america"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nMarket Expansion - Centers & Institutes<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/business.cornell.edu\/centers\/sponsored-project\/market-expansion\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Market Expansion\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Project: Proyecto had grown quickly, but having its entire business in Mexico exposed it to significant country (including regulatory) and currency risk.
