Bringing the World to NEPA
Come join us on Friday, September 23, 2016 at The Woodlands Inn, Wilkes-Barre, PA from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM.

Is your company considering exporting or seeking to expand its global presence? If you are, meet Pennsylvania’s Authorized Trade Representatives (ATRs) at Bringing the World to Northeastern Pennsylvania, NEPA’s premier International Business Development event. You will also learn about the business development resources available to your company and network at this unique event.

Your international trade partners, ATRs are business consultants located in-country that provide guidance to get your products or services into their respective markets. Pennsylvania businesses are fortunate to have access to one of the largest, most comprehensive state-sponsored export development programs in the U.S. with 15 ATRs covering 51 countries. These consulting services are provided free of charge to Pennsylvania companies through the Pennsylvania Department of Community & Economic Development’s Office of International Business Development.

There is no cost to attend, but registration is required, and space is limited. Meetings will be scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis. Businesses can register to meet up to six ATRs (actual meeting schedules will be determined by demand and timing). Registration will begin at 8:00 a.m., and individual half-hour meetings will be scheduled 8:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. Participants will receive an individual meeting schedule prior to the event. Refreshments and lunch will be provided. Registration must be received by Friday, September 16, 2016.
