Join Global NY’s Trade Mission to the Smart City Expo World Congress Nov 15-17, 2016 Barcelona, Spain
Global NY is recruiting NYS companies to participate in an organized exhibition at the Smart City Expo World Congress (SCEWC).
The summit brings together city representatives, companies and exhibitors from around the world to discuss and showcase urban transformation ideas, technologies and solutions including:
•Mobility and Transportation
•Technology and Telecommunications
•Energy Efficiency and Sustainability
•Environmental Management
•Resource Management and Infrastructure
•Data Technologies and Cyber Security
•Security and Emergency Management
Last year’s SCEWC drew representatives from over 500 cities, 450 exhibitors and 400 speakers. Global NY will help you connect with attendees and find opportunities for your business to join in this important event.
Application Deadlines and Details:*
The deadline for SCEWC applications is on a first-come, first-served basis up to Sept. 15, 2016.* For eligible companies, the STEP grant may reimburse a significant portion of your exhibit, travel and accommodation expenses. You will also be automatically enrolled in Global NY’s customized Export Marketing Assistance Service (EMAS) at no extra charge.
Global NY offers one-stop shopping to both local businesses that want to export globally – and to foreign businesses looking to invest in New York. One way Global NY is helping small businesses export their products and services is by connecting them to the State Trade and Export Promotion (STEP) Program. Funding – offered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) through Empire State Development (ESD) – supports a variety of activities, including participation in foreign trade shows like SCEWC. Global NY is also partnering with the U.S. Department of Commerce.
Is Your Business Eligible?
To be eligible for a STEP grant, your business must have 500 or fewer employees, have been profitable for the past year, have a product or service to export and meet the standards and mission of the STEP Program. (MWBE firms and businesses classified as NYS strategic industries are encouraged to apply.)
Ineligible businesses include law firms, non-profit organizations, retailers and educational institutions. Companies that act as intermediaries for others or are recruiting foreign investment are also ineligible.
