STATE TRADE EXPANSION PROGRAM

The SBA’s State Trade Expansion Program (STEP) Grant provides financial assistance to small businesses looking to enter or expand into international markets. Through the STEP Grant, businesses can access funding to support a variety of export-related activities, including trade show participation, market research, translation services, and international marketing campaigns.

Funded in part through a grant with the U.S. Small Business Administration.
