More than half of the RI manufacturing leaders who responded to Polaris MEP’s “State of Manufacturing” survey said that finding and accessing new customers/markets was a top priority for 2022.  If that’s true for your company, international markets might provide the opportunities you are looking for. Exporting is a “foreign process” to many, so it’s natural to wonder if exporting is right for your company, if you are ready to “go global” and how to get started.

 In this webinar, international trade consultant/trainer Linda Woulfe offers an overview of the benefits of exporting, what it means to be an exporter and how to determine if you are “Export Ready.”
