The U.S. Commercial Service is pleased to announce World Trade Week NYC, a celebration of international trade in the greater New York City area. The theme of World Trade Week NYC 2007 reflects the important contribution that small and medium size businesses make to the vitality of the region’s economy. This year, World Trade Week takes place from May 19-23, 2008.

Activities planned by World Trade Week NYC partners will disseminate information about resources and services available to the business community to help you engage in the global economy. These activities include a Monday morning World Trade Week Awards Breakfast which celebrates NY-area companies who have contributed to international trade. This is a great opportunity to network with members of the international business community and meet potential business partners. Register for the breakfast today!
