"We are proud of our flexibility in reaction to the pandemic when BEYOND Ventures Group Inc. was quick to conduct virtual trade missions when travel was no longer possible. Undaunted by the limitations presented by COVID-19, we continued helping to ensure that businesses could establish new markets and grow their current market share. 

Furthermore, until we are all safe from the transmission of the virus, we will continue to provide opportunities to explore supply and demand in response to government to business, business to business and business to consumer. "
