In-person mission
Kazakhstan
Almaty Business Mission
3-day in-person program pairing SMEs with regional trade representation and a development center.
4 SMEs matched with qualified counterparts
Cross-border business development
Find a verified partner — in either direction.
2BAIFEN turns “find someone abroad” into a verified partner and a signed intent — for small and midsize businesses, in either direction, in any market. Not a business tour. Not a contact list.
- Verified suppliers, distributors or manufacturing partners abroad
- Due-diligence before you spend a dollar on travel
- A calendar of qualified meetings, not a list of names
- Qualified US buyers and distributors, calendar-ready
- Plain-language guidance on certification, tariffs, logistics
- A local advisor who speaks your language, literally
Outcome, not activity
We count signed intents and closed contracts — not meetings held for their own sake.
Verification is the product
Every partner is checked for reputation, financial standing, legal standing and real capacity — before you get on a call.
Global by design
One methodology proven across 12+ countries in both directions of trade — not a single-corridor playbook.
What makes this different
What we are — and what we're not
The market is full of trips with a cultural program and directories of unverified names. Neither carries any accountability for a business result.
A business tour
A trip with a cultural program bolted on. No one is accountable for whether you actually find a partner.
A contact directory
A list of names and emails. No one checks whether the company on the other end is real, solvent, or legitimate.
2BAIFEN
A measurable outcome: qualified meetings, a percentage of verified partners, and signed letters of intent.
Methodology
Four stages. One accountable process.
The same methodology runs in both directions — outbound and inbound — because the barrier is never geography, it's trust.
-
01
Discovery & Market Entry Brief
A paid first step, not a free call. We assess market fit, target partners and real barriers — tariffs, certification, logistics, negotiation culture — before you spend a dollar on travel.
-
02
Partner Verification & Sourcing
We qualify a minimum of three candidates per engagement: reputation, financial standing, legal cleanliness and real production or sales capacity.
-
03
The Business Mission
5–8 confirmed meetings in 3–5 days — in person or fully remote with translation and recording — structured toward a signed Letter of Intent.
-
04
Partner Relationship Retainer
Ongoing support after the first deal: logistics, communication and conflict resolution with your new partner, on retainer.
Trust as a product
How we verify a partner before you ever meet them
The single biggest fear on both sides of the table is the same: being misled by someone you can't check up on from another country. Verification is how we remove that risk.
Ask about our verification process-
Reputation & track recordCross-checked with trade bodies, past counterparts and public record.
-
Financial standingA basic solvency and stability review before an introduction is made.
-
Legal & regulatory standingRegistration, licensing and sanctions screening.
-
Real capacityProduction, warehousing or sales capacity confirmed — not claimed.
-
Structured, documented negotiationEvery round is recorded and summarized — nothing relies on memory.
Verification reduces cross-border risk. It does not guarantee the outcome of a business negotiation between two independent companies.

Talk to people, not a form
The team behind the mission
Four people who scope, verify and sit in the room for every engagement — not a call center reading from a script.
Liza
Market Entry Advisor
“Every engagement starts with a conversation, not a questionnaire. I'll tell you honestly whether this is a fit — before you pay for anything.”
- 20-minute call, no pitch deck
- English & Russian-speaking
Vadim
Operations & Finance
Runs day-to-day operations and owns financial planning for every engagement.
Arkadiy
Strategic Management
Sets strategic direction and oversees governance across engagements.
Kirill
Research & Analytics
Prepares briefing materials and leads market research and analytics behind every engagement.
Investment
A transparent ladder, not a quote on request
The more you invest upfront in Discovery, the lower your Success Fee — and vice versa. Final numbers are scoped to your market and mission after the Discovery Brief.
1
Discovery Fee
Fixed, paid upfront
A Market Entry Brief: is this market a fit, who are the target partners, what are the real barriers to entry.
2
Mission Package Fee
Fixed, per engagement
Sourcing, verification and delivery of your business mission — in person, remote, or at an exhibition.
3
Success Fee
Percentage, on signed deals
Tied to the value of the relationship once a Letter of Intent or contract is actually signed.
4
Partner Retainer
Monthly, optional
Ongoing logistics, communication and conflict resolution support with your new partner.
Questions
Before you reach out
No. A tour sells you a trip with a cultural program; we sell a measurable business outcome — qualified meetings, verified partners and signed intent. Travel, if any, is a delivery mechanism, not the product.
Reputation and track record, financial standing, legal and regulatory status, and real production or sales capacity — see the full checklist above. Every round of negotiation is documented, not just remembered.
We've run projects across 12+ countries and a wide range of sectors. Reach out — the Discovery step exists specifically to give you an honest answer on fit, even if that answer is "not yet."
We guarantee a rigorous, documented, verified process and qualified meetings. No legitimate advisor can guarantee another independent company's business decision — and you should be skeptical of anyone who claims otherwise.

Business Tour vs. Verified Partner Network: What Actually Closes Deals
