Join us for the Export Expo – the state’s largest and most important export event of the year that brings together resources, training and information for the local exporting community!
The Massachusetts Export Center’s Export Expo provides a forum for exporters to connect with the wide range of export resources available in Massachusetts while learning about issues that impact their day-to-day operations.
This year’s Export Expo will again be a virtual
event that will include an exhibit area featuring
government, non-profit and private sector service
providers serving the export community. The Export
Expo will also feature a lineup of workshops, panel
discussions and special addresses on a wide variety
of export-related topics.
This year’s Export Expo will focus on important developments in our international trade environment, including the continued impact of global threats, policy and regulation on global trade operations. Critical issues such as fundamental changes in the drivers behind export control policy, recent export control and enforcement policy actions, shifts in use of list-based sanctions, outbound and inbound foreign investment screening initiatives, impacts of policies involving China and Russia and more will be addressed, with a focus on helping companies to navigate a dynamic and increasingly complex global trade environment. |
