Join us for an engaging session of the Business Travelers Series centered on Germany — Europe’s largest economy and one of the United States’ most important trade and investment partners. Known for its engineering excellence, regulatory precision, and innovation, Germany offers significant opportunities for U.S. companies across advanced manufacturing, automotive, healthcare, and green technology sectors.

Topics of discussion will include, but are not limited to:

Country & Trade Overview
Business Communication & Formality
Professionalism & Business Attire
Regional Business Norms
Market Entry & Regulatory Compliance
Negotiating Tactics

Sponsored by: The Gerald R. Ford International Airport & Michigan Economic Development Corporation
