What is ETNA?
The Environmental Technology
Network for Asia (ETNA) is a U.S. government-sponsored clearinghouse
that collects environmental trade leads from the Asia/Pacific region
and disseminates them to U.S. environmental technology and services
firms. Established in 1993, ETNA is an initiative of the United
States-Asia Environmental Partnership (US-AEP) and the
Global Technology Network
(GTN) of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).
What services does ETNA offer?
In cooperation with the U.S. Department of Commerce, US-AEP has
placed Environmental Technology Representatives in 6 Asian countries
to identify trade opportunities for U.S. companies and coordinate
meetings between potential Asian and U.S. business partners. These
environmental trade specialists meet regularly with decision-makers in
industry and government in order to prepare concise trade leads that
identify Asian buyers, environmental concerns, and proposed technology
solutions. These leads are forwarded to ETNA, where they are matched
against a database of over 5,000 registered U.S. companies, and then
emailed to those companies that provide the requested technology or
service.
ETNA also provides business counseling to U.S. environmental
companies interested in expanding into Asia, and provides market trend
analysis on each providing country. Contact ETNA (etna@usaep.org) to
find out more about these and other services.
How do I register?
Any U.S.-owned environmental firm is eligible to receive free trade
leads. Companies may
register online, or they may
contact ETNA to register.
