Strategies for International Success in Today's Uncertain Global Economy

Different parts of the world have been affected in different ways by the current global economic crisis.  Savvy Wisconsin exporters can still succeed in international markets.  Representatives from Wisconsin's International Offices will be in Wisconsin May 11 - 15 to talk with firms about the strategies that can be employed in different markets to make sales now or lay the foundation for future sales.

Wisconsin's international offices in Canada, Mexico, Brazil, and China provide valuable in-country contacts for Wisconsin exporters. Each has direct access to markets, resources, and key business decision-makers. They can conduct market analyses and identify potential agents, distributors, or end-users for your product. They can introduce you to appropriate translators, accountants, lawyers and other professional service providers that help in the export process. They can also provide customs, labeling, and regulatory certification assistance and serve as a liaison to government agencies.
