The Montana World Trade Center at The University of Montana http://www.mwtc.org and U.S. Rep. Denny Rehberg http://www.house.gov/rehberg/ will lead a trade mission to South America Aug. 11-18. Stops are planned for Buenos Aires, Argentina; Sao Paulo, Brazil; and Santiago, Chile.
The mission will help Montana business cultivate new markets and develop stronger relationships with existing clients through prearranged one-on-one meetings.
MWTC Executive Director Arnie Sherman believes the mission should result in more products and services exported to South America.
“I expect great success for Montana businesses in these key markets and appreciate Congressman Rehberg’s willingness to lead our delegation,” he said. “The level of meetings and access to decision-makers is greatly enhanced when a member of the congressional delegation is an active participant.”
Rehberg will be available to attend business meetings with companies on the trip. He also will meet with government and industry officials interested in forging business ties with Montana.
Montana companies and groups involved in the mission are MSE Technology Applications, Globalization Partners International, Corporate Air, TowHaul/Smith Equipment, Evergreen International Inc., Corvallis Feed and Seed/Commercial Machine Services, Wood’s Powr-Grip, bioLytical Laboratories, TSI Health Sciences, the Montana Environmental and Engineering Consortium, the Montana Manufacturing Extension Center, UM’s Legal Counsel and the Montana Export Assistance Center.
MWTC is a UM program operating in cooperation with universities throughout Montana. It helps state businesses establish or strengthen their international commercial capabilities.
