Host Webinar
Do you want to demonstrate that your region is positioned for
increased global trade and economic development interactions? Why not have your community host the internationally
recognized Americas Competitiveness Exchange (ACE)?
The ACE brings together 50 senior-level government, business,
policy, and economic decision-makers from across the Americas and beyond to
experience first-hand the diverse range of projects, strategic investments,
public-private partnerships, and best practices from a particular region’s
innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystems.
The top leaders selected to participate in the week-long
program tour innovation hubs, advanced technology centers, leading firms, and
educational and research institutions, to explore local, regional, urban, and
rural economic development models, share experiences and knowledge, and build
networks among the local and visiting stakeholders to enhance innovation and
competitiveness in the Americas.
