Export Program WEBINAR: Global Expansion

Learn about export assistance resources and the basics of export finance. We will share valuable information that will help you craft your own export business plan and connect to the marketing, business planning, and data resources you need to grow you company’s export sales. We will go over the basics of export finance and answer your questions about federal loan guarantee programs for exporters, export credit insurance, and letters of credit.

This course will also introduce participants to the United States Export Assistance Center. For business owners who wish to expand their business, they may do so with SBA backed funding and loans. Currently, there are three loan programs offered through the SBA.

This webinar is made possible through a collaboration of the SBA and the Women's Business Center.
