City of Chandler to host Export Training Program; seeks local companies interested in growing their export sales.
ExporTech, a nationally recognized program proven to help small- and mid-sized companies boost their exports, is coming to Chandler for the first time this fall. The program, which begins Friday, Aug. 5, is delivered by the Arizona Commerce Authority (ACA) RevAZ Manufacturing Extension Partnership program, along with national partners. The City of Chandler Economic Development Division is co-sponsoring this Fall 2016 program.
“The City of Chandler understands that international trade is a major driver of economic prosperity,” Mayor Jay Tibshraeny said. “Our goal for this training program is to accelerate local export growth by providing companies with access to the knowledge, services and expertise necessary to compete in the global marketplace.”
Representatives from up to eight participating companies will attend three full-day sessions (Friday, Aug. 5, Friday, Sept. 9, and Friday, Oct. 14), where they will be exposed to Arizona export experts from diverse subject matter sectors, undergo practical training on key export topics and receive individualized export coaching. Between sessions, participants will work with a program-assigned export coach to conduct market research and refine their international strategies.
