Delaware Businesses can learn how to sell products around the world at export conference in Wilmington
The National Export Initiative Small Business Tour is designed to help achieve the President’s goal of doubling exports in the next five years to support the creation of several million new jobs. In support of this goal, The US Commercial Service invites you to the New Markets, New Jobs Initiative, a day-long conference designed to connect small and medium sized businesses with resources they need to sell more of what they make in markets overseas.
American businesses still face many hurdles in getting their products to new markets: the lack of readily available information about exporting and market research; challenges in accessing export financing; and strong competition from foreign companies and governments. “New Markets, New Jobs Initiative” will address those challenges for small and medium sized businesses.

A panel of speakers from the federal government and the private sector will provide practical, how-to information about resources that are available to help small-and medium-sized companies sell their products and services in markets overseas.
