Market Access Day 2025: DGAE and the European Commission Support Companies in Porto
The Directorate-General for Economic Activities (DGAE) and the European Commission are pleased to announce the Market Access Day, an event dedicated to supporting national companies in their internationalization efforts. The initiative will take place at the Palácio da Bolsa in Porto on December 12, 2025.
A Strategic Opportunity for Internationalization
The main objective of this event is to discuss the European Union’s trade policy, with a special focus on the benefits of Free Trade Agreements established with third countries. It will be a prime platform for companies to understand how they can make the most of these agreements to expand their presence in global markets.
Digital Tools to Support Your Company
During the event, the functionality of key digital support tools provided by the European Union to businesses will be presented. These tools are essential for navigating the complexities of international trade.

- Single Entry Point: A direct channel for companies to report trade barriers they encounter in non-EU markets, allowing for swifter action by the European Commission.
