ExIm Annual Conference: Empowering U.S. Companies to Win More Sales

The competitive landscape for U.S. exporters is evolving rapidly. Each year, foreign governments are aggressively expanding support for their domestic exporters, making it even more difficult for American businesses seeking to grow sales through exporting but facing an un-level playing field. America’s export credit agency, the Export-Import Bank of the United States, is committed to empowering U.S. companies to stay competitive and succeed abroad—the focus of EXIM’s 2018 Annual Conference on April 19-20 at the Omni Shoreham Hotel in Washington, D.C.

This year’s EXIM Bank conference will feature keynote remarks by top government and business leaders, plenary panel discussions about critical issues facing the U.S. economy and trade environment, and interactive topical breakout sessions for participants. The conference will equip participants with actionable insights on market trends, EXIM financing products, and best practices to succeed in global markets, as well as provide comparative data on the foreign government support benefiting their competitors.

EXIM Bank anticipates welcoming more than 1,000 participants from around the world. Convening key leaders in business, policy, media, and government, the conference provides a perfect opportunity for businesses of all sizes to meet and learn from the trade experts.
