One of our very own WEGG contributors, Steve King, is quoted in this U.S. News and World Report article, “Best Small Businesses To Start,” The article is authored by one of our favorite entrepreneurial reporters:  Matthew Bandyk.  Here’s the part on globalization:

Another trend is globalization. More U.S. businesses than ever are connected with the world. There’s a huge market out there for American entrepreneurs to sell to, and it’s growing. “There’s going to be an equivalent to the U.S. middle class created each year over the next decade” in the developing world, says Steve King of the Institute for the Future.

Some entrepreneurs—be they companies going global or outsourcing firms educate and train businesses in the new game of globalization. Export managers link domestic buyers with foreign sellers.

So if you are reading this blog, you are on the right track for 2009!  Start growing global and get connected to everyone, everywhere.
