As a nonprofit organization, ITAC relies on the support, expertise, funding and in-kind contributions of many organizations—regionally as well on a state, federal and global level.  These organizations recognize the value and importance of the ITAC program in our regional economy, and assist us in providing quality international trade services.  

ITAC is funded in part through grants from the Ohio Small Business Development Centers and the U.S. Small Business Administration, and is hosted by NEOTEC.  ITAC's and NEOTEC's offices are based in Kent on the campus of Kent State University, which is a special partner in the economic development initiatives of both organizations.  Several other organizations fund, support, and partner with ITAC in a number of ways.  These organizations include:

• Manufacturing Advocacy and Growth Network (MAGNET)
  
• Dominion East Ohio
• Cleveland State University's Global Business Center at the Nance College of Business
• Ohio Department of Development Global Markets Division
• U.S. Commercial Service's U.S. Export Assistance Center (USEAC)
• FirstEnergy Corp.
