In this issue we highlighted a visit
by Fred Hochberg, Chairman
and President of Export-Import
Bank for the “Exporter Forum” in
collaboration with Congressman
Raul Ruiz. Emphasizing the
benefits of export to companies
that want to expand their
markets globally was the
central theme of this forum.
The Riverside County College
of Foreign Trade continued
this year to cover the basics of
International trade but in the
second seminar, it covered “How
to expand International trade
using e-commerce”. Both classes
were well attended with over
60
companies in each class.
The Riverside County EDA/
Office of Foreign Trade is pleased
to announce that it received
recognition from the Inland
Empire Economic Partnership
by winning its “Responding to
Globalization”, 2014 Program
Award and was honored by
the California Association for
