DESCRIPTION:Accessing Developing Markets for Your Product\n\nThe consumer m
 arkets in Brazil\, Russia\, India and China (BRIC) now are responsible for
  a sizable portion of the profits for most global companies. Working again
 st this prize is a formidable maze of culture\, laws\, and overlapping reg
 ulations\, causing confusion surrounding the regulatory requirements. If y
 ou are considering entering the BRIC marketplace with your electrical and 
 electronic products\, you need knowledge of how to obtain the necessary re
 gulatory approvals for EMC\, telecom\, and product safety.\n\nWhether your
  product is for telecommunications\, computing\, wireless\, consumer elect
 ronics\, or household appliances\, you will face some distinct and unique 
 obstacles\, for which you need to be prepared. Distance\, language\, unfam
 iliar culture\, and developing market conditions can make this a difficult
  and expensive procedure for the uninformed. Come to this presentation so 
 you can gain some insight into the processes\, and learn sources of inform
 ation and allies to help you navigate a safe path to compliance.\n\nMark M
 aynard is the Business Development and Communication Manager at American C
 ertification Body\, Inc.\, and has over 25 years of experience in complian
 ce engineering\, in the areas of EMC/EMI\, wireless/telecom\, product safe
 ty\, environmental\, and quality management systems. He also currently ser
 ves as the President-Elect for the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society
