Dec 4 | 10-11:00 am PT

Are you looking to grow your business outside of BC?

The international market presents growth opportunities, yet it is also dynamic and complex, which can make it challenging for entrepreneurs to navigate.

On December 4, we’re hosting Export Navigator to discuss how women business owners can navigate international markets and explore how to approach sales and negotiations. We’ll explore tips and considerations for all types of businesses that are looking to sell internationally, with specific examples for exporting agri-food products.

Using a gender-specific lens, we’ll talk about:

  • Cultural considerations during negotiations
  • Tips for closing the deal as a woman in international markets
  • Practical skills and how to build a supportive network

This session is designed for those who are already exporting and those that are curious about exporting. We look forward to you joining!

Wednesday, December 4 | 10am to 11am PT | Free Virtual WeCafé

Our WeCafés are always free and open to everyone!

Facilitator: Archana Samtani Singhania, Business Advisor, WeBC
