Services provide growth for a company
Business today has the opportunity to grow outside of Arizona. Exporting products or services provide growth for a company and new money for economic growth inside Arizona. The importance of exporting is being promoted in multiple events this week, on top of a series of trade-focused activities last week.
Tomorrow, the Arizona Commerce Authority combines with economic developers in Gilbert and Mesa for a half-day forum to teach businesses more about what's involved in exporting. On Thursday, the city of Chandler and Chandler Chamber of Commerce offers a similarly focused event.
In between, Lambda Alpha International is presenting the Phoenix and Tucson mayors talking about the new Arizona Economic Development offices in Mexico City. Mayors Greg Stanton and Jonathon Rothschild will talk about their partnership with the state and Maricopa Association of Governments in the office and how it will bolster trade between Arizona and Mexico.
