In the last issue of this magazine , we shared information about the Washington State Department of Commerce STEP Grant program and the different activities eligible for a voucher . Many Washington companies use this grant to grow their export revenues in Europe , by attending trade shows but also by working with Commerce ’ s long-term consultant TFDI to better understand the market and connect with appropriate partners .
Lately TFDI has also supported our cluster by organizing webinars . One of them focused on the drone industry in Europe , current and coming opportunities for our Washington companies , as well as information on the new regulations coming online in 2021 . For this event , TFDI partnered with Drone Industry Insights , the leading source for business intelligence in the field of commercial drones . With over 60 years of professional aviation experience , the Drone Industry Insights team supports companies around the world in building sustainable business models and helps investors make the right decisions in a new and dynamic industry .
