International Buyers Program
The American Dental Association (ADA) is excited about participating in the 2008 International Buyer Program, offered through the U.S. Commercial Service. This dynamic program helps bring importers and exporters from around the world together under the experience and expertise of the U.S. Department of Commerce/U.S. Commercial Service where they can successfully generate business at the leading dental conference in the U.S.A.
U.S. Exhibitors
The U.S. Commercial Service's International Buyer Program brings thousands of international buyers each year to conduct business with U.S. companies at major trade shows in the United States.
