WTCGP & CCEDC Join Forces to Educate Companies on Export Management

This seminar was specially designed for small- and medium-sized companies interested in international business, new to exporting or expanding into new export markets. Our experienced speakers reflected upon various topics, such as:

  • “Developing a Global Business Strategy” - Joanna Savvides, WTCGP;
  • “Cultural Aspects of Doing Business Internationally” - Dr. Jay R. Buffenmyer, Elizabethtown College;
  • “Contracts, Negotiations and Foreign Corrupt Practices” - Spencer W. Franck, Jr., Saul Ewing LLP;
  • “Methods of Payment” - Amy Sahm, Fulton Bank;
  • “Foreign Exchange” - Tony Loiacono, Global Exchange Group, Inc.;
  • “Financing Your Export Transactions” - Robert Elsas, U.S. Small Business Administration.

Representatives from three local companies: Dancing Dots, Metallurgical Products Company (WTCGP member) and Schramm, Inc. (WTCGP member) shared their experience of doing business internationally.

The WTCGP would like to invite you to our next seminar. On May 18, 2006, as part of our ongoing Breakfast Around the Region series sponsored by Sovereign Bank, you will have a unique opportunity to go on an insider’s tour of the Philadelphia Regional Port Authority. Register online.
