The Wisconsin Manufacturing Extension Partnership (WMEP) will present ExporTech, a program to help Wisconsin manufacturers fast-track international sales, at three full-day sessions on Feb. 15, March 15 and April 13 at the Riverwood Corporate Center in Waukesha.
ExporTech demystifies the exporting process and gives manufacturers the resources they need to hit the ground running. A coach/mentor helps companies collect market data, identify target markets and create an international growth plan. A panel of successful exporting companies and international business experts provide guidance and feedback. Participants discover new markets for their products and gain knowledge on logistics, finance, regulation and other topics.
Each session is limited to eight companies due to the highly collaborative nature of the program and to provide sufficient time and attention to each company’s unique business needs.
