Each year MITC organizes one large State of Maine trade mission, often with the Governor, as well as smaller missions.  Trade Missions provide important one-on-one meetings with potential foreign trade partners and unique networking opportunities.  We invite you to consider participating in one of our upcoming trade missions.
