U.S. Rep. Wm. Lacy Clay will welcome Export-Import Bank of the United States Chairman and President Fred Hochberg to St. Louis for a Small Business Exporter Forum at 9 a.m. Friday, March 11 in the Barcelona Conference Room at World Wide Technology, 701 Fee Fee Rd.
The forum is designed to help small businesses and local manufacturers learn how to grow their companies through international trade.
“The Export-Import Bank supports more than 20,000 jobs in Missouri and has helped generate $1.3 billion in exports from our state over the past five years,” said Clay, a senior member on the House Financial Services Committee who championed the bank’s recent reauthorization by Congress.
“I urge small business owners who want to grow their companies to join us for this remarkable opportunity to learn how to make trade work for you.”
The event is free and open to the public, but space is limited and reservations are required to attend. To RSVP today, visit www.lacyclay.house.gov/events. For more information, contact Brian Williams at (314) 367-1970.
