Making Global Local

Making Global Local (MGL) streamlines USTDA’s ability to share and support new global opportunities at the local level, giving the program a two-way capability to reach an alliance of partners. More than 90 partners across 36 states and Sovereign Native American Nations participate in the full range of USTDA’s export-promotion programs, including reverse trade missions, business briefings and overseas workshops.

MGL partners are Tribal, state, and local economic development organizations, chambers of commerce, world trade centers, and small business development centers. If your organization meets this criteria, please consider reaching out to MGL@USTDA.gov to learn more about becoming a Making Global Local partner.
