The Economic Development Partnership of North Carolina's (EDPNC) International Trade team maintains overseas offices that help companies like yours prosper in North Carolina by growing revenue through exporting. Once a year, this team of experts goes on the road to bring their expertise directly to you!
You'll have the opportunity to meet and work with our Foreign Trade Representatives and learn about opportunities in global markets including Canada, Mexico, Europe, and the Middle East.
Whether your company is currently exporting, export-ready, or you are interested in learning more about developing international marketing, the Go Global Road Show is an excellent opportunity for North Carolina companies to develop new foreign markets that can increase exports and profits.
Our Foreign Trade Representatives and International Trade Managers will:
Conduct one-on-one consultations with export-ready companies.
Show country specific presentations on targeted foreign markets.
Provide introductions and networking opportunities to other companies.
Representatives from the North Carolina Department of Agriculture, Small Business and Technology Development Center (SBTDC), and US Commercial Service will also be available at each location.
Road Show attendees will also participate in individual one-on-one meetings with the EDPNC's Foreign Office Directors. Lunch will also be provided during a presentation on foreign markets.
