The seminars are delivered by Foster Swift’s international trade attorneys and sponsored by MEDC as part of the State Trade Expansion Program (STEP). Launched in 2011, STEP is a grant program designed to develop or expand export-related activities in an attempt to empower eligible small businesses.
