Basque business ventures in Shanghai
From a press release on a visit to a Basque industrial park near Shanghai. Below are two examples of the phrase in context.
El Lehendakari anima a los empresarios "mirar hacia Oriente" en su proceso de internacionalización
López ha calificado de ***"oferta de país"*** la apuesta común de empresas y Gobierno Vasco en esta misión vasca en Shanghai
La segunda jornada de la misión empresarial e institucional que encabeza el Lehendakari, Patxi López, en Shanghai, ha concluido con una recepción oficial a los representantes de las más de 70 empresas vascas que están buscando un espacio de negocio en este país y una representación de las empresas ya radicadas aquí y de sus clientes chinos.
El Lehendakari les ha trasladado su agradecimiento por el esfuerzo que están desarrollando "hacer *** una oferta de país *** en China". "Y si una primera impresión podemos sacar de ésta visita es el enorme potencial que tiene este país. El beneficio que tendrá para todo el País Vasco establecernos como un aliado duradero y de confianza de China", ha señalado López.

national showcase
This is a tricky one, because I think in English we talk more about these trade missions showcasing a country's service, using a verb rather than a noun.
You might be also able to say "to create of showcase of what the Basque Country has to offer" in your second instance. This is longer, but it is hard to convey this idea in fewer words.
It might give you some ideas though.

Trade mission to showcase business

This legal services trade mission will take place during a week of events sponsored by the UK government to showcase its financial and legal services sectors and attracting key players from the UK and Chinese financial and legal services sectors
http://international.lawsociety.org.uk/node/7779
The week-long trade mission is an effort to boost trade between Ireland and Russia.
The trade mission has been organised by Enterprise Ireland and will coincide with President Mary McAleese’s visit to Russia.

The event is intended to showcase technological innovations within the oil and gas industry and provide a forum where national and international companies, academia and industry bodies can collaborate to interchange ideas, experience and technology with respect to confronting the challenges in the Mexican oil and gas industry.

nation-wide offer / national offer
I would translate it this way. Although this could be misleading to some, it seems that the Basque country can refer to itself as a "nation".
Peer comment(s):

Cristina Talavera
: This is the exact meaning = nation to nation = China and el País Vasco rubbing elbows!! You might want to contact the client for this one! True. The comment was inappropriate on my part.

Initially I agree with you, however, the point is that the Basque country is offering their trade, not just rubbing elbows with China.

commitment of the country
An offer is a commitment to do something. Here, it is Basque country's commitment to China to promote business.
