This year, there has been a lot of talk about tariffs and their impact on our economy. Companies that do business overseas (whether importing or exporting) have faced multiple challenges as they attempt to navigate the everchanging policies coming at them.
Where can they turn for help and advice?
The World Trade Center-Kentucky (WTC-KY) is the answer with the resources, advocacy and strategies to navigate these changes and stay competitive. Together, we can turn obstacles into opportunities.
With informative training sessions, international trade resources, trade missions, and more - participation in our organization is crucial for Kentucky companies who are looking to grow via connections to foreign markets.
Did you know that Kentucky set an all-time record in exporting nearly $48 billion worth of goods and services last year (an 18.7% increase over 2023)? While some of the Kentucky companies engaged in international trade are large and have trained staff to guide them, many small- to medium-size enterprises who need trade advisory support. Whether it is navigating the world market, understanding complex regulations and taxes, or handling shipping issues, the WTC-KY is here to help.
The World Trade Center - Kentucky Foundation supports the WTC-KY so it may remain the leading provider of trade education, trade advisory information, and trade missions across the state. Each year, the WTC-KY responds to trade service requests, offers on-site trade support, and organizes international trade education programs covering topics ranging from international sales contracts to market entry strategies. We help with both importing and exporting. In addition, our trade missions allow Kentucky businesses to explore a market through site visits, business matchmaking, and introductions to government officials. The WTC-KY Foundation helps to ensure that WTC-KY's programs and services reach individuals and companies throughout the state who are interested in growing trade in the Commonwealth.
Funding raised during Give for Good Louisville will allow us to continue offering world class programs and support that grow Kentucky's economic competitiveness. Please join us in growing Kentucky's trade by making a donation today! Be sure to check out our trade podcast, too!
