About This Event

Overview

It is difficult to imagine a more exciting time for international trade than the present. The opportunities for exporting and importing are growing at an impressive rate - and with those opportunities come challenges. Today, the global marketplace provides these opportunities not just for the multinational corporation, but also for small upstart companies. Most companies begin their initial involvement in international business by importing or exporting. "Importing" is bringing goods into your country from another country in order to sell them. "Exporting" is sending goods out of your country in order to sell them in another country. This webinar will prepare business professionals to deal with issues such as how to find buyers, customers, or suppliers, import-export documentation, transport cost and duties, international trade regulations, and how to get paid.
