What is ExporTech?

img2ExporTech is an innovative national export assistance program designed to accelerate export growth for small and mid-size manufacturers.

The program assists C-level leadership of SMMs to:

  • Enter or expand in global markets
  • Efficiently connect with a wide range of experts that help navigate the export sales process and provide information specific to each company’s needs
  • Develop a written export growth plan, that is vetted by a panel of experts upon completion

Stone & Associates and its partner Clear Intent Strategy developed ExporTech’s program design and content on behalf of NIST/MEP (U.S. Dept of Commerce’s National Institute of Standards and Technology/ Manufacturing Extension Partnership).

The Stone & Associates team continues to serve as ExporTech national master facilitators and to lead program design and marketing efforts.
