Center for International Trade Development
Center for International Trade Development is one of
the principal agencies that help to build capacity for
business and individuals interested in developing
their efficiencies in identified areas of economic
activity. |

 |
| 1. |
The way the world does business is changing!
Globalization is growing at an impressive rate promising businesses
greater opportunities, and increased revenues, access to new markets is
diminishing for big and small companies alike. Businesses striving for
success must now see themselves as part of the global network. |
|
| 2. |
Enjoy a competitive edge. Businesses that champion international trade
will have better profits and bigger market share. Current trends
indicate that US exporters forecast a growth rate that is 30% higher
then non-exporting firms. Globally, exports of goods and services will
reach 28% of the world gross domestic product, or $11 trillion, by the
year 2005. Importing companies are also reaping the benefits of reduced
costs and increased profits. |

The Bay Area Center for International Trade Development is funded with
economic development funds from the California Community College
