This initiative is part of Ivace+i Internacional 's ongoing support for the internationalization of companies in the Valencian Community . This reverse trade mission aims to directly connect content creators and the specialized press with the production realities of the footwear sector.
The Director General of Entrepreneurship and Internationalization, Ester Olivas , emphasized the importance of this methodology, explaining that "this initiative aims to open new promotional channels through renowned influencers in Mexico, a market with great potential for our products." Olivas highlighted the effectiveness of this format in reaching specific audiences: "These missions, comprised of influencers and specialized press, help us reach audiences that are otherwise difficult to access and allow us to build the sector's image and associate the Valencian Community with quality, innovation, and design ."
The guests are participating in an intensive program that includes presentations on Valencia's offerings and, crucially, direct visits to factories and companies . This immersive experience aims to ensure that the content generated is authentic and reflects the real-world manufacturing experience . "The international guests not only receive information, but also experience it firsthand through factory visits , generating genuine content that allows us to showcase our sector in the Mexican market," added the CEO.
The collaboration with the Valencian Association of Footwear Entrepreneurs (AVECAL) has been fundamental for the coordination of this activity, which also coincides with the celebration of Elche Fashion Week.
