Utah Governor’s Office of Economic Development

September 8, 2011 - We were pleased to hear from Franz Kolb, Regional Director, Governor’s Office of Economic Development, International Trade & Diplomacy Office and Lew Cramer, CEO, World Trade Center Utah, about the challenges and benefits of using social networking internationally. This seminar was designed to help Utah companies use social media to make and sustain international relationships. Over the last decade, technological advances have revolutionized social communication. Now days, international managers can use blogs, podcasts, social networks, applications, discussion forums, and photo sharing to connect with new markets. We were able to discuss cyber etiquette, the future of social media, and had an opportunity for some invaluable networking.

We would like to thank Barbara Bagnasacco and Ballard Spahr as well as the presenters and participants for making this seminar a success.
