As our global marketplace slowly recovers from the global  economic crisis, Europe and the U.S. stand strong to further develop their long-standing friendship with bilateral trade and investment opportunities that will hopefully usher us into an unprecedented age of prosperity. 

In particular, President Obama’s National Export Initiative (NEI) challenge to double U.S. exports in the next five years has presented Europe with the advantage of importing U.S. products, services and technologies into the EU.

This seminar/luncheon will feature an array of experts discussing taxes, incentives, support services and opportunities that American companies can now utilize to enter the EU marketplace.
