Export Ready Workshop 19-20 November

Export Ready Workshop

Over the past two days (19-20 November), we had the pleasure of delivering a practical Export Ready Workshop to 28 representatives from local NSW businesses.

The passion for doing business globally was clear, and our sessions focused on guiding participants further by sharing insights on topics such as market entry strategies, navigating logistics, financing exports, and pitching for success. With increasing global challenges and risks, thinking outside the box – both in terms of one’s offering and broader business model- is becoming more important than ever.

It was encouraging and inspiring to hear the stories shared by attendees about how they are looking to grow- or expand in- overseas markets. The peer-to-peer networking element once again added a valuable layer to the program’s success.

A heartfelt thank you to our incredible keynote speakers from Investment NSW (Tom Ward and Mariana Bortolini), Westpac (Patrick Nguyen, Paul Kenney, Annie S. and Hamish Thomson), FedEx (Chris Monahas and Dean Gum), Export Finance Australia (Colin Pinto and Richard Liang), and China and Beyond (Sara Cheng). Facilitated by our ECA representatives Arnold Jorge and Stefanie Harter, we delivered an engaging, practical and highly interactive program.

Thank you to all attendees who joined us: Abhi Sataya, Brittany Darling, Sagar Raj Chhetri, Dinara Janaratne, Michael Barraclough,Ruckshan Rolin, James Projcevski, Monique Sutevski, Chloe Huang, Paul Pollard, Angie Morris,Zee Dahan, Jacqueline Hutton, Scott Nolan, Jasmin Jenkins,Bruno Ambrosi, Riaz Jacobs, Lisa Jacobs, Tracey De Friskbom, Barnes and Brown Sean, Yalan Lu, Tony Juang, Himanshu
