The International Trade Center SBDC is a joint program of the Small Business Administration and the Dallas County Community Colleges system. We have focused on serving the international trade needs of companies in the DFW region and the 49 surrounding counties since 1989.  We are also known as the International Small Business Development Center and are one of 18 centers that make up the North Texas Small Business Development Center network. We are firmly committed to ensuring the international business success of our clients in this region, including entrepreneurs, small to medium-sized businesses, and the international decision makers of multinational corporations. The ITC celebrates its successes in assisting hundreds of these clients reporting export sales totaling over $48 million, in 287 free one-on-one counseling sessions and more than 40 training sessions in the fiscal year ended September 2007, alone.   

The ITC also supports the efforts of our partner organizations such as area chambers of commerce, economic development agencies, and trade commissions to promote the North Texas region as a great place for entrepreneurs and foreign companies to establish a new home.
