Export forums
Information about local export forums
Many exporters who take part in trade missions confirm the huge value in being able to share experiences and observations with like-minded people in the export industry.
As well as allowing local exporters to compare notes, Export Forums can also attract high-calibre speakers who can introduce members to new opportunities.
The Midlands World Trade Forum
The Midlands World Trade Forum is open to all businesses in the West Midlands region, regardless of export experience.
Forum Members can get access to expert advice and support from International Trade Teams and UK Trade & Investment. Members currently exporting also offer their experiences of trading in countries around the world.
