Meet Carley Meuchel! An inspirational speaker/author equipping the disabled community to live to the best of their potential. This is for everyone! RSVP is free, and we appreciate donations. In 2019 we donated several hundred dollars to local organizations, we want to do the same in 2020.

For Carley, Cerebral Palsy left her with limited lower body mobility. However, her disability hasn’t stopped her from living her life to its fullest. She hopes to inspire and equip others to stay positive despite the struggles in life and business; as well as teach the non-disabled community how to share success.

See you there!

Your LinkedIn Local PDX cohosts,

Are you thinking about taking your business into the Global Marketplace? Ready to import or export your products into or out of the U.S.? Find out what’s involved, considerations you should make, and get answers to your questions here.
Why might you import? What market considerations are there? What are the various costs of importing? Can what you want to import be imported into the U.S.? Does the item to be imported conflict with any U.S. patents? Quality control issues, costs implications and inspections. Do you have the funding to travel to the source of your import? Any alternative sources? U.S. Customs and compliance. What is your landed price?
For exporters: Why export? What internal factors should you be aware of? How do you do a market assessment? How do you get a product evaluation? What options are available for product distribution? Do you need intellectual property protection? How do you determine the terms of sale? What do you need to know about trade financing?
