Join the Tampa Bay Delegation

Dear Internationa Business Leaders,

It is with great pleasure that we invite you to accompany the Tampa Bay Export Alliance on our upcoming trade mission to Santiago, Chile. 

With foreign trade becoming an increasingly important component of our economic development efforts, our organizations have made a commitment to work together, along with our oregional partners, on a coprehensive international strategy to increase export activity for Tampa Bay area businesses. 

This mission to Chile, our first goether since announcing our partnership earlier this year, is a critical part of that plan. 

Chile is already one of Florida's leading trade partners, and its economy is consistently ranked as one of the most open and stable in Latin America. We have a tremendous potential to leverage the state's existing ties, while expanding our own relationship for the benefit of the Tampa Bay business community.

This mission will allow you to market your products and services to Chilean trade partners through one-on-one business matchmaking sessions, and provide you with an opportunity to meet and interact with high-level corporate and government leaders, while helping you expand your market reach and increase sales.

We welcome your participation and hope you will be able to join us.

Sincerely,

Rick Homans                                                                        Mike Meidel
