World Trade Week 2009

As New Yorkers we depend heavily on international commerce for our jobs, standard of living and the myriad goods and services available to our richly diverse population.  Indeed, world trade drives the New York economy.
 
Every year, the New York region’s trade and transportation community comes together in May to celebrate World Trade Week with a full agenda of educational seminars, global business networking events, and an awards breakfast that recognizes exemplary contributions in the field.
 
Today's global economy poses unprecedented challenges.  However, now more than ever, international expansion is necessary for business growth.  Learn how to turn the challenges we face today into opportunities for the future by participating in World Trade Week 2009.

Do not miss this unique opportunity to access key resources and to network with New York's international business community. Save the date and join us for World Trade Week 2009,  May 18-22, and related events throughout the month of May.
