NEW YORK (PRWEB) February 13, 2018 -- The organizers of eTail West (February 26th - March 1st), the longest running conference dedicated to the ecommerce and omni-channel retail community, in conjunction with Getting to Global (GtG), today announced the agenda for the second annual Getting to Global Leadership Summit.

Together with GtG, eTail is realizing its role in U.S. job creation by fostering a 360 eco-system of government trade counselors, brand leaders and small business service providers

Post this

Taking place on the pre-conference day of eTail West (February 26th) at the JW Marriott in Palm Springs, CA, the summit offers small businesses in the U.S. the opportunity to connect with senior executives from the world’s largest global retailers and government officials to share strategies and best practices for growing their business internationally, including customer acquisition, government financing and global payments, navigating local customs and culture and more.

“The mission of Getting to Global has always been to provide small and medium-sized businesses with the necessary tools and insights to understand and thrive in the international market,” said Josh Halpern, Founder and Executive Director of the Getting to Global Initiative. “Our inaugural leadership summit in 2017 was a rousing success and was unprecedented on a public/private partnership level where government officials and cutting edge brands work in tandem to build mock-expansion strategies that aggregate the services of the public sector with the tools from the private sector. We’re proud to partner with them for a second year”.

Featured speakers at this year’s summit include:

• Jose Nino, VP, eCommerce & Digital Marketing, Perry Ellis International
• Eric Boyce, SVP, Strategy and Development, Elevate Brand Partners
• Christine Webster, VP, eCommerce, Lime Crime
• Zachary Belinsky, Vice President, Village Hat Shop
• Kristen Gasior, CMO, Balsam Brands
• Michael Green, VP, Global eCommerce Marketing, Hasbro
• Bryan Benavides, Director, Brand Marketing, Abt
• Stephen Sullivan, Senior International Trade Specialist, Office of International Trade, U.S. Small Business Administration
• Pellson Lau, Regional Export Finance Manager, U.S. Small Business Administration
• Ray Bowman, Director, Ventura, Santa Barbara Small Business Development Center
• Carl Miller, Managing Director, Global Retail Insights Network (The GRIN Labs), a GtG partner and member based non-profit organization

“eTail is proud to leverage its network of best in class service providers and brands to support small and medium business growth through overseas expansion”, said Lori Hawthorne, Senior Analyst and Divisional Director for eTail. “Together with GtG, eTail is realizing its role in U.S. job creation by fostering a 360 eco-system of government trade counselors, brand leaders and small business service providers”.
