I think that the entire trip to Portland was a very worthwhile experience. It certainly helps us become further immersed in what we are learning about UK. I also had no idea the MITC even existed, this really surprised me. Even if I had known, I was most surprised to find out how many businesses had such a presence all over the world. This truly opened my eyes to the many opportunities in the state of Maine."
"The visit with Maine International Trade Center shed light on the number of things going on in Maine that have international ties. The number of small businesses that are able to sell internationally was enlightening. The statistics on Barber Foods really surprised me. I knew the shipped all over the world, but was surprised by their US market share.
The visit with Hydro International was great! I was impressed with the amount of time Mr. H. spent with us talking about the company, his personal experiences, and sites to see while in London. His enthusiasm for his company and his product is contagious. The time he spent with us gave me a greater appreciation for what the company does and their products that will make the research more focused."
