How to Internationalise your Business Masterclass

Date: August 15, 2018

Time: 09.00-13.00

Location: The Tytherington Club, Dorchester Way, Macclesfield SK10 2JP

Defining your global growth ambition is an important first step to exporting, but what comes next?

In this interactive masterclass we look at 7 keys stages of export growth planning and consider some of the main questions facing business leaders such as: Why internationalise? How should we prepare for Brexit?

We consider strategies for overcoming perceived and real barriers to export growth, addressing areas such as: ensuring your products and services are export ready; identifying markets; managing sales and marketing; addressing language and culture; your people and skills; finance and operations.

We will also explain how to access advice and support from the Department for International Trade, North Cheshire Chamber and our partners in the UK and overseas.
