Doing Business in the Caribbean Region

Topic: Managing a Business
Monday, February 22, 2010 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM

Are you trying to figure out how to grow your company's revenues during this time of economic uncertainty but aren't sure how? Have you thought about exporting as a means to grow and diversify your company's revenue streams but aren't sure how? This seminar might be for you. Here are five compelling reasons to do business in the Caribbean Region: (1) close proximity, (2) 3rd largest market in Latin America for U.S. Exports, (3) cooperative trade relationship, (4) free trade, and (5) regional integration. Topics include: in-depth briefing about the Caribbean region, discuss regional synergies, explain the political and economic history, and discuss the best prospect sectors for U.S. exports to the Caribbean region.

Speaker(s): Robert O. Jones, Counselor for Commercial Affairs Caribbean Region with the U.S. Department of Commerce

Co-Sponsor(s): U.S. Export Assistance Center in New Orleans, Louisiana Business & Technology Center, and LSBDC Technology Center at LSU
