Caribbean TradeBeat
Caribbean TradeBeat - the radio magazine - from the Caribbean Regional Negotiating Machinery - aims to make the business of Caribbean trade talks your business. Caribbean TradeBeat keeps you informed and involved, as the CRNM works in the region's main negotiating theatres – from bilateral agreements to the global trade accord governed by the World Trade Organisation, the current Doha round. Hear the voices of the region's business community on how they meet the successes - or challenges - of global free trade and find more on how businesses, large or small, can help forge trade deals for the benefit of the Caribbean private sector - from securing better market access to developing innovative, sunrise industries and services.
