Government export help would expand to include small creative businesses and Native Hawaiian artists.
This bill would help small creative businesses and Native Hawaiian artists sell their goods and services to other countries. It would expand government programs that promote exports to include these groups. It would also work to improve international shipping for very small businesses.
Today, government export promotion programs mainly focus on small and medium-sized businesses, and specifically mention American Indian arts but not Native Hawaiian. If this bill becomes law, these programs would expand to include microenterprises and creative industries like design and music. Native Hawaiian arts and businesses would also receive specific export promotion help, and government agencies would work together to improve international shipping for very small and small businesses.
