Annual Directors’ Visit
The directors of Wisconsin’s five international trade offices will be making their annual visit to Wisconsin the week of May 12-16. Kate Clarke and Kara Smith (Europe), Vince Lencioni (Mexico), Paul Swenson (China), Claudia Tomaselli (Brazil), and Nancy Ward (Canada) serve as the eyes and ears for Wisconsin exporters in key markets around the world. The trade offices conduct market viability studies and agent/distributor searches as well as identify government regulations that can affect a firm’s sales efforts. Each May the directors of the trade offices visit the state to disseminate information about the business opportunities in their markets and to consult one-on-one with firms interested in expanding their export sales efforts. They will be in Milwaukee for the 44th Annual Wisconsin World Trade Conference in Milwaukee on May 13, in Sheboygan in the morning of May 14, the Fox River Valley in the afternoon of May 14, in the Eau Claire area on May 15, and in Madison on May 16.
