OPEN TO IMPORTING & EXPORTING: FIND & ENTER NEW GLOBAL MARKETS
There is incredible potential in global markets for U.S. products and services. There are more free-market agreements than ever before. There are more services and resources available to assist companies that export than in the past. And because of technology, the ability to access global markets has never been easier. China alone represents a huge and growing export destination that will experience a migration of 300 million people to urban areas over the next 20 years, and a huge increase in the middle and upper class with vast disposable income. Are you capturing your share of the global marketplace, or are you satisfied letting your competitors enjoy all the rewards?
Are you maximizing your company’s value? Not if….
- you can export but are not, or
- you are exporting, but not in the best markets for your product or are not focused on the best markets.
Did you know? Exporting reduces risk and increases value through…
- diversification of economies, markets and customers
- increase market share, sales and profits
- utilization of excess capacity
This summit will instruct you on…
- how to research and identify the best foreign markets for your products
- where to go for information
- how to enter foreign markets
- what services and resources are available to assist your exporting efforts
- what to watch out for so you don’t make the mistakes others have
Exporting experts from the U.S. Department of Commerce, Utah Small Business Development Center Network and Global Center, World Trade Center, Ag & Food, Utah’s Own and local small business exporters and importers will be there to instruct you and to answer your questions.
