The U.S. Department of Commerce and eBay will partner to promote trade and investment expansion, announced Commerce Secretary Penny Pritzker and eBay Chief Executive Officer John Donahoe on Wednesday.
The partnership, part of President Barack Obama’s National Export Initiative, will focus on building awareness about the economic benefits of trade, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises, Commerce said in a news release.
The agreement follows the department’s announcement Tuesday that U.S. exports reached $2.3 trillion in 2013.
