How much attention is your business paying to growth opportunities outside the U.S.?
Poll Description

Maine International Trade Day is actually two days — this Thursday and Friday, May 16-17. The conference, held annually by the Maine International Trade Center, brings together businesses to celebrate and spread awareness of the importance of global trade in the state.

This year's Trade Day, “Evolution: The Future of Maine’s Heritage Industries,” will explore how new technology and new products are creating international opportunities for businesses in agriculture, forest products, seafood, shipbuilding and textiles.

Trade Day takes places at the Cross Insurance Center in Bangor this year. For more information and to register, click here.
