DREAMING OF DOING BUSINESS ABROAD?
International business is a fascinating field, but a difficult one to get into. Whether you want to work abroad, work with different cultures, or even start your own business, you need to understand what it truly means to work internationally. More and more businesses are going global. Social and political issues now have global impact. Young professionals need these skills to stand out in our increasingly global world.
Participating in this project will allow you to follow and experience first-hand the steps that a company takes to enter a new market. You’ll meet with local professionals who have faced international expansion to hear their stories and insights. You’ll understand the challenges of expanding and doing business abroad. Through workshops and company visits, you’ll practice adapting products to a new market on your own. Most importantly, you’ll gain crucial contacts abroad to launch your career in international business from back home or even abroad!
