ORLANDO, FL (December 22, 2014) –Today, Secretary of Commerce and Enterprise Florida, Inc. (EFI) president & CEO Gray Swoope announced that the EFI-led trip to MEDICA resulted in more than $151 million in projected sales. Florida’s two-story pavilion, the largest of any U.S. state at the event, showcased 25 small and mid-sized Florida life sciences companies and organizations.
斯福普局局长说:“今年我祝贺佛罗里达州的25家公司成功。通过国际节目和任务,EFI能够加强佛罗里达州公司的机会,并以回报为本,公司可以帮助发展佛罗里达州的国际足迹并增加工作。由于成功的佛罗里达州公司在Medica的一年中有一年,国家在全球范围内承认为企业超级状态。“
MEDICA is the largest medical trade fair worldwide and was held in Germany from November 16-19. Florida’s pavilion allowed companies and organizations to market their medical and healthcare products to an international audience, and demonstrate the innovation and expertise that makes Florida a leader in thelife sciences sector。佛罗里达州馆为公司提供私人会议室,以满足来自世界各地的生命科学领导者。今年,来自其他国家的公司将佛罗里达州的馆作为一个中央会议的地方,进一步扩大了国家展示参与者的能见度。
Florida companies and organizations participating in MEDICA and the Florida Pavilion this year included:
前往Medica 2014的几家公司以前前往efi的节目。没有EFI的援助,许多公司无法参加,没有展馆,不会有效地达到如此大而重要的受众。
Apira Science的业务发展总监Jonathon Graff表示,“我们参加了全球佛罗里达州的几个佛罗里达州活动,并且始终是任何其他活动的经验。员工的协助,特别是在美国外部的佼佼者,对我们的日益增长的业务非常有利于。这些是我们的客户和经销商关于做生意的容易的评论的唯一展示。总而言之,我认为,我们在欧盟的增长尤其是由于Medica的介绍,我们的英国/欧盟经销商认为其最有价值的一年。
David Bello,Endscopy Replaceperate Parts,Inc。总裁说,“国际贸易展始终对我们的销售额产生积极影响,因为我们的销售额为60%是国际销售。通过参加这些节目,我们获得新的全球客户以及与现有客户会面。我们还与我们业务范围之外的公司造成了个人关系。我们在过去接受了贸易赠款,这肯定有助于我们的公司增长,感谢企业佛罗里达州的努力。“
Peter Eggert, Vice President of Gaumard Scientific said, “Being a unique simulation product provider at MEDICA makes Gaumard a must-stop, and key competitors do not exhibit at MEDICA. This gives us an edge with distributors who are coming here annually to visit their suppliers. This and our continued innovation makes our trade partners realize that they cannot risk not working with us. Thanks to international trips with Enterprise Florida we have definitely experienced a surge in visits to our booth in the past couple of years and our national business development has been taking off.”
