Whether you’re a sole trader working from home, or head up an established business, The Secret to Global Sales on a Shoe String will give you the inside track on how to expand internationally, where to get help and how to make maximum impact with minimum outlay.
Come along and network with other ambitious firms and hear our entrepreneurs talk about their experiences of building an international business.
The event is sponsored by UK Trade and Investment and the Regional Language Network and both will have experts available on hand to offer advice and guidance.
