The World as Your Marketplace
International Opportunities to Grow Your Business

  In tough economic times, small businesses often seek to establish new markets and find new customers.  Utah’s World Trade Center brings together companies and government agencies to help create these potential business opportunities.  Learn how your business can venture into the global marketplace by exporting products and welcoming foreign visitors.   

Starting Small, Thinking Big
Operating a Home-Based Business

 

Every day, Americans start new businesses.  Some begin with significant resources, but many start out of a home office or a cluttered garage with little more than an idea and a small cash reserve.  Learn how to take an idea and turn it into a successful business while avoiding common pitfalls along the way.
