Hybrid Eastern Cape Export Symposium and Exhibition – 24 & 25 March 2021

Hybrid Eastern Cape Export Symposium and Exhibition – 24 & 25 March 2021

REBUILD EXPORT CAPACITY POST PANDEMIC

The Eastern Cape Development Corporation’s authentic commitment to reinitialize and boosting the province’s economic adaptability brings together once again delegates, exhibitors, exporters, bankers and shipping agents under one roof.

The hybrid event will cater for both physical and virtual conference and B2B meetings. Through setup Hubs and its Social Media Platforms, the event will be LIVE streamed across South Africa and beyond.

Its goal is to familiarise the Eastern Cape with the changes in the global developments like Brexit and AfCFTA and go a step further to prepare them with the right tools and equipment they need to practically show that in change lies opportunities.

Running under the theme, ‘Reset Eastern Cape export and improve the economic resilience’ the third annual event is set to roll out an Eastern Cape Economic Recovery plan. The plan will deal with assisting companies to rebuild export capacity post pandemic, opportunities to tighten regional integration in ways that better leverage local resources in a global setup and how to identify realistic export opportunities.
