World Trade Month
About World Trade Month
Every May, World Trade Month celebrates how international trade unlocks new business opportunities, creates jobs, and strengthens the U.S. and global economy.
At the International Trade Administration (ITA), we advance inclusive economic prosperity by strengthening the international competitiveness of U.S. businesses, increasing U.S. exports and attracting inbound investment, and leveling the playing field for U.S. companies and workers by defending against unfair trade practices.
Over the course of the month, ITA celebrates World Trade Month by promoting events for U.S. businesses of all sizes to learn more about how international trade can benefit their bottom line and enhance job creation. ITA provides U.S. companies, researchers, and policymakers with trade counseling, business matchmaking, and trade data tools to ensure they can compete and win in the global marketplace.
Check back May 2025 for events, resources and other offerings for U.S. exporters, researchers, and policymakers!
