NASBITE International is accepting 2025 Annual Conference presenter submissions through Friday, December 20, 2024.
The 2025 NASBITE Annual Conference is scheduled to be in-person on April 8-10 at the Crowne Plaza Cleveland at Playhouse Square, Cleveland, OH.The NASBITE conference provides a forum for learning across a broad spectrum of topics related to international business and trade. Conference attendees include faculty teaching international business at colleges and universities; international trade specialists and trainers affiliated with SBDCs/World Trade Centers/state offices of international trade, etc.; and independent trade consultants and professionals from the industry. We are seeking presenters to provide current topics and best practices for all segments of conference attendees.
NASBITE International encourages submissions linked to five themes:
- Best practices in international business education including curricula, study abroad, pedagogy, etc.
- Best practices in international business training and SME assistance
- Enhancing trade skills (international marketing, supply chain, trade finance, compliance, eCommerce, marketing research, international digital strategies, etc.)
- Trade resources in support of international business training and assistance
- CGBP and CGBP Student Pathway Program and related topics including best
- practices in CGBP curricula, pedagogy, faculty training, lessons learned from the Student Pathway Program, etc.
Proposals are welcomed outside of the above themes.The focus of all sessions should be educational, that is, with an emphasis on informing attendees of best practices, resources, or developments in the field, as opposed to commercial in nature. As we continue to see an increase of attendees actively working in international trade, we encourage proposals that support both educators and practitioners.
NASBITE International does offer a robust sponsorship program, and we would be pleased to work with interested organizations on opportunities to showcase our sponsors.
