Raleigh, NC: Sonny Gupta, president of Web Design Studio, announced today that the firm has been named as a sponsor for the CED's Globalization 2008 Conference. The Globalization 2008 Conference will feature international thought leaders and expert panels which will validate the global model for businesses of all stages in high-growth industries. The event will be held at the Embassy Suites in Cary, North Carolina on February 14, 2008.

Attendees will explore and learn strategies, benefits and connections to achieve success in a global marketplace. Entrepreneurs with an existing multi-national presence will share best practices, while those seeking to build relationships will attain the network and know-how to compete globally. There will be networking opportunities with entrepreneurs, investors, service partners and major corporations supporting innovation in the global economy.

"With the Internet and today's technology, the world keeps getting smaller," stated Gupta. "There are many opportunities in the global marketplace that businesses of all sizes can tap into, but it has been a challenge for businesses to learn how to conduct business internationally." Gupta added, "The CED's Globalization Conference is groundbreaking for entrepreneurs who are trying to build businesses that are founded on a sustainable global model, and I am proud that Web Design Studio will be a part of it."
