Global Programs Forum & Exchange- The Magic Behind the Mission: Tricks of the Trade

The USAEDC Global Programs Forum & Exchange is a practical, working forum where cooperators and USDA's Foreign Agricultural Service come together to strengthen the programs that advance U.S. agricultural exports.

This year we celebrate the expertise, innovation and practical know-how behind effective export market development programs. The "tricks of the trade" are not secrets or shortcuts. They are the proven strategies, tools, partnerships and lessons learned that help organizations implement programs more effectively, efficiently and strategically.

Through peer exchange, operational updates, implementation guidance, compliance discussions, case studies and collaborative problem-solving, participants will explore ways to adapt, innovate, strengthen program performance and maximize export impact.

The real magic is the people, partnerships and expertise that turn program investments into opportunities for U.S. agriculture around the world.
