The Bay Area World Trade Center recognizes that international trade is a dynamic field--and that means organizations have to continue to update information. Planning, hosting, or sponsoring training seminars is a regular part of our workday. Like "Piercing the Great Wall of China," a primer on trade regulations in the WTO's newest member, or "Winning Strategies for Biomedical Companies in the European Union," a discussion of business development for California biomedical companies venturing into the European Union. Programs like these get you up to speed--and keep you there.

International Trade Law
When do legislative changes take effect? Sanctions and restrictions on international trade can be complex and intricate, or vague and open to interpretation. We can wade through it quickly for you--especially NAFTA issues.

Business Regulation
Government laws about foreign business may be difficult to translate, and attitudes toward business may change. We have the knowledge and experience to know what the law means, and monitor political currents to foresee change.

Cross-cultural Issues
We have hosted individuals and groups from all over the world, and led overseas trips from the Bay Area as well. The BAWTC is a "citizen of the world," and we can help you acclimate to an international atmosphere.
