Niedersachsen Foreign Trade Day 2012 “ASEAN Region”

24 April 2012, HANNOVER MESSE - Nord L/B Forum

The focus of the 9th Niedersachsen Foreign Trade Day will be economic relations with the ASEAN Region, currently demonstrating year-on-year growth rates of over five per cent. High-ranking German and Asian speakers will give their views on the political and economic situation in ASEAN countries, spotlight business opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), and discuss the exponentially increasing importance of the region in global trading relations. Reports from enterprises already active in the region complete the programme. A further highlight of the event will be the awards ceremony for the 3rd Niedersachsen Foreign Trade Prize.

Established in 2004 as an international business forum and the State of Niedersachsen’s largest foreign trade promotion event, the Foreign Trade Day offers countries a platform to present their economic strengths to stakeholders and decision-makers from the worlds of business, research and politics.
