Today globalization in all countries are increasingly competing to be the best, from the smallest
one, to the largest countries seeking to innovate in the market. Looking their comparative advantage
and taken into account in order to excel and be more competitive.
Globalization is too importance for companies. Sometimes it is for countries in general, and they
allow free trade and openness to give competition in international markets. Generating a greater
economic fluidity for trading countries.
In addition, the globalization have many benefits for all of people because it allows them to have
higher standards of living and more favorable social status. Also, globalization is achieving
gradually disappear the monopoly in several countries, and it gives for new companies in the same
industry line so that they can compete, and it not allows stagnant the economy of the country in the
obsolescence(thing that will never have a significant economic growth). Having the access to free
trade can see a great advantage when competing with other countries, due to it gives way to
innovation to be creating new trends, create new products and improving some existing ones.
Today countries not only marketed production and technology. They also use the labor to reduce
production costs. In some countries the labor is very expensive. So, it is better for those to look
other countries where they can pay less for the labor with the purpose to go to that country, and
produce the products in that country. Moreover, if companies can reduce their costs and personal
unemployed by giving preparation and specialization to some employees in other areas. It could be
more competitive and perform other activities (giving better pay).
Also, some countries are specialized and are gaining a greater competitive advantage over other
countries. the globalization encourages countries to focus more on what can they do best. Other
countries produce more power than others. So, they sell that product to those countries, but it

always involves an opportunity cost which entails the sacrifice of certain products that make these
country or company lose less, which imported from other countries in return for export production.
Today thanks to globalization and technological advances are now so many ways to communicate
with people from other countries and also to access any type of information faster and easier. For
example, people can communicate and look any information in Facebook. Also, it helps large
economic and cultural changes in which there are losers as winners, we can’t all win.
The globalization can change the ideology of the country and not only produce to meet only
nationally or locally. Also, with the opportunity to export and meet the needs of other countries and
the opportunity to have capital to import the missing products to meet local demand. It is also very
important because it allows companies to locate in other countries and continue to grow and benefit,
and at the same time benefit the country to help providing jobs and help the economy of both
countries, because this is the biggest number of transnational corporations that exist today.
Some countries are agree to leave behind globalization and protectionism is very important in order
to be competitive and achieve economic growth. For governments, they must be aware and begin to
look for ways to leverage resources that they already have. Investing their capital in goods and
process the natural resources with the purpose to start to innovate. Also, the countries with large
amount of land, they must learn to take the right way to grow and excel; to generate competitive
advantages and leave behind what It makes it obsolete. As consequence, if followed well without
accepting the change and globalization could always be poor country and can never occupy an
important place in the international market. For example, Venezuela in 2015 with the socialist
mentality.

Moreover, with a globalized world allows companies and countries to improve, grow, they have a
chance to see their mistakes and improve them; why the trade exist, the need to compete, to fight
with the other organizations and be in the taste of customers is generated.
The countries that want to excel to others it always is willing to change and invest capital for the
acquisition of machinery and equipment required for better production, as well as intellectual
potential. for example, if a Venezuelan citizen has potential or ability to develop new technologies
and in the country do not want to support, there is always another country who is interested in him
and that will give you the opportunity to develop it, although this new patent remain in that country
as well as the earnings obtained by this.
For those reasons, being a globalized country always brings benefits and more by technological
